Protein existenceEvidence at protein level

General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes the dephosphorylation of undecaprenyl diphosphate (UPP). Confers resistance to bacitracin. Ref.3 Ref.4 Ref.6

Catalytic activity

Ditrans,octacis-undecaprenyl diphosphate + H2O = ditrans,octacis-undecaprenyl phosphate + phosphate. Ref.6

Subcellular location

Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein Ref.6.

Induction

Expression is sigma M, sigma X and sigma I-dependent. Induced by vancomycin and bacitracin, via sigma M. Expression is maximal during early exponential phase and decreases during stationary phase. Ref.3 Ref.5 Ref.7

Disruption phenotype

Disruption results in a marked decrease of resistance to bacitracin. Ref.5

Miscellaneous

Bacitracin is thought to be involved in the inhibition of peptidoglycan synthesis by sequestering undecaprenyl diphosphate, thereby reducing the pool of lipid carrier available.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the BcrC/YbjG family.
