General annotation (Comments)

Function

Responsible, at least in part, for anchoring of the major outer membrane lipoprotein (Lpp, also known as the Braun lipoprotein) to the peptidoglycan via a meso-diaminopimelyl-L-Lys- bond on the terminal residue of Lpp. Ref.6

Pathway

Cell wall biogenesis; peptidoglycan biosynthesis.

Subunit structure

Interacts with DsbG. Ref.7

Subcellular location

Periplasm Potential.

Disruption phenotype

Similtaneous disruption of erfK, ybiS, ycfS and ynhG leads to loss of covalent anchoring of the major outer membrane lipoprotein (Lpp, also known as the Braun lipoprotein) to the peptidoglycan. Complementation with erfK restores some of this anchoring. Ref.6

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the YkuD family.
