Nodulation protein A (NodA)
Rhizobia nodulation (nod) genes control the biosynthesis of Nod factors required for infection and nodulation of their legume hosts. Nodulation protein A (NodA) is a N-acetyltransferase involved in production of Nod factors that stimulate mitosis in various plant protoplasts. [1]. 9163424. Molecular basis of symbiosis between Rhizobium and legumes. Freiberg C, Fellay R, Bairoch A, Broughton WJ, Rosenthal A, Perret X;. Nature 1997;387:394-401. (from Pfam)
NodA family N-acyltransferase
NodA family N-acyltransferase similar to Rhizobium leguminosarum NodA which acts in the production of a small, heat-stable compound (Nod) that stimulates mitosis in various plant protoplast and is required for nodulation
Nodulation factors are lipo-chitooligosaccharides made by bacterial nitrogen-fixing bacteria as a signal to plant hosts. Nod factors differ slightly from system to system are serve as host range determinants. Because the N-acyl group varies from one NodA to another, the family treated as a subfamily, but all members of this family belong to NodABC systems.
