Type: | Family | Name: | Peptidogalycan biosysnthesis/recognition |
Description: | This is a family of both bacterial and plant proteins with responsibility for building interpeptide bridges in peptidoglycan. Such a function is feasible for bacteria but less likely for the plant members of this family. Perhaps the plant-members are using homologous proteins to recognise bacterial peptidoglcans as part of their innate immune system []. | Short Name: | FemAB_like |
