    Summary
    Involved in the modification of lipid A phosphates with aminoarabinose that is required for polymyxin B and cationic antimicrobial peptide resistance. [More information is available at EcoGene: EG14090]. ArnC is an undecaprenyl transferase that acts in a pathway which modifies lipid A phosphates with 4-amino-4-deoxy-L-arabinose (L-Ara4N), causing increased resistance to polymyxin . [More information is available at EcoCyc: G7167].
