Gene name arnA
FUNCTION: Bifunctional enzyme that catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of UDP-glucuronic acid (UDP-GlcUA) to UDP-4-keto-arabinose (UDP-Ara4O) and the addition of a formyl group to UDP-4-amino-4-deoxy-L-arabinose (UDP-L-Ara4N) to form UDP-L-4-formamido-arabinose (UDP-L-Ara4FN). The modified arabinose is attached to lipid A and is required for resistance to polymyxin and cationic antimicrobial peptides (By similarity).
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: UDP-alpha-D-glucuronate + NAD(+) = UDP-beta-L-threo-pentapyranos-4-ulose + CO(2) + NADH.
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: 10-formyltetrahydrofolate + UDP-4-amino-4-deoxy-beta-L-arabinose = 5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate + UDP-4-deoxy-4-formamido-beta-L-arabinose.
PATHWAY: Nucleotide-sugar biosynthesis; UDP-4-deoxy-4-formamido-beta-L-arabinose biosynthesis; UDP-4-deoxy-4-formamido-beta-L-arabinose from UDP-alpha-D-glucuronate: step 1/3.
PATHWAY: Nucleotide-sugar biosynthesis; UDP-4-deoxy-4-formamido-beta-L-arabinose biosynthesis; UDP-4-deoxy-4-formamido-beta-L-arabinose from UDP-alpha-D-glucuronate: step 3/3.
PATHWAY: Bacterial outer membrane biogenesis; lipopolysaccharide biosynthesis.
SUBUNIT: Homohexamer, formed by a dimer of trimers (By similarity).
SIMILARITY: In the N-terminal section; belongs to the fmt family. UDP-L-Ara4N formyltransferase subfamily.
SIMILARITY: In the C-terminal section; belongs to the sugar epimerase family. UDP-glucuronic acid decarboxylase subfamily.
