The licC gene of Streptococcus pneumoniae encodes a CTP:phosphocholine cytidylyltransferase.

C O Rock1, R J Heath, H W Park, S Jackowski.   

Abstract

The licC gene product of Streptococcus pneumoniae was expressed and characterized. LicC is a nucleoside triphosphate transferase family member and possesses CTP:phosphocholine cytidylyltransferase activity. Phosphoethanolamine is a poor substrate. The LicC protein plays a role in the biosynthesis of the phosphocholine-derivatized cell wall constituents that are critical for cell separation and pathogenesis.
