Methyltransferase/kinase WbdD

Methyltransferase/kinase WbdD and "WbdD" is a bifunctional enzyme that regulates the length of the LPS O-antigen polysaccharide chain. Stops the polymerization of the chain by phosphorylating and then methylating the phosphate on the terminal sugar. This terminal modification is essential for export of the O-antigen across the inner membrane. WbdD is also required for correct localization of the WbdA mannosyltransferase.
This protein is involved in the pathway LPS O-antigen biosynthesis, which is part of Bacterial outer membrane biogenesis.
