CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Stealth proteins are part of a protein family that is
CC conserved from bacteria to higher eukaryotes. Family members were first
CC identified in microbes as proteins that help pathogens to elude the
CC host innate immune system. Microbial stealth proteins are involved in
CC the biosynthesis of exopolysaccharides. Stealth proteins are predicted
CC to function as hexose-1-phosphoryltransferases.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the stealth family. {ECO:0000305}.
