CC -!- FUNCTION: Involved in the modification of the lipid A domain of
CC lipopolysaccharides (LPS). Transfers a phosphate group from
CC undecaprenyl pyrophosphate (C55-PP) to lipid A to form lipid A 1-
CC diphosphate. Contributes to the recycling of undecaprenyl phosphate
CC (C55-P) (PubMed:18047581). In vitro, has low undecaprenyl-diphosphate
CC phosphatase activity (PubMed:17660416). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17660416,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:18047581}.
CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:
CC Reaction=alpha-Kdo-(2->4)-alpha-Kdo-(2->6)-lipid A + di-trans,octa-cis-
CC undecaprenyl diphosphate = (Kdo)2-lipid A 1-diphosphate + di-
CC trans,octa-cis-undecaprenyl phosphate; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:45468,

CC Rule:MF_01945, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18047581};
CC -!- ACTIVITY REGULATION: Inhibited by BasR. This regulation does not occur
CC at the level of transcription, but rather following the assembly of
CC LpxT into the inner membrane. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20384697}.
CC -!- BIOPHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES:
CC pH dependence:
CC Optimum pH is 7.0. Significant activity is observed from pH 5.5 to pH
CC 7.5. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18047581};
CC -!- PATHWAY: Bacterial outer membrane biogenesis; lipopolysaccharide
CC biosynthesis. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01945,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:18047581}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell inner membrane {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-
CC Rule:MF_01945, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15919996,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:17660416}; Multi-pass membrane protein
CC {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01945, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17660416}.
CC Note=Transferase activity takes place on the periplamic side of the
CC inner membrane. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01945,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:18047581}.
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Deletion of the gene results in the production of
CC LPS containing only the bis-phosphorylated lipid A species.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18047581}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: In E.coli, lipid A contains typically a monophosphate
CC unit at positions 1 and 4' (bis-phosphorylated lipid A). However, one-
CC third of the lipid A contains an unsubstituted diphosphate unit at
CC position 1 (lipid A 1-diphosphate). {ECO:0000305|PubMed:18047581}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the LpxT phosphotransferase family.
CC {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01945, ECO:0000305}.
