Protein Family Models

This domain is found in polysaccharide deacetylase. This family of polysaccharide deacetylases includes NodB (nodulation protein B from Rhizobium) which is a chitooligosaccharide deacetylase [1]. It also includes chitin deacetylase from yeast [2], and endoxylanases which hydrolyses glucosidic bonds in xylan [3]. [1]. 9163424. Molecular basis of symbiosis between Rhizobium and legumes..

A common motif in bacterial biosynthesis of polysaccharide for export is modification that follows polymerization. This HMM describes a subfamily of polysaccharide N-deacetylases that acts on poly-beta-1,6-N-acetyl-D-glyscosamine as produced by Staphylococcus epidermidis and S. aureus. The end product in these species is designated polysaccharide intercellular adhesin (PIA), and this gene designated icaB (intercellular adhesion protein B).
