Function | EF-P, a ubiquitous bacterial protein that is required for the synthesis of poly-proline motifs during translation, is a translation elongation factor that is necessary for pathogenicity. Activated EF-P binds at polyproline-stalled ribosomes and stimulates Pro-Pro peptide bond formation, thereby alleviating translational arrest. |

Protein Glycosylation- Implication | This modification activates EF-P and is crucial for bacterial fitness (key role in gene expression and survival) as well as pathogenicity. It is the first instance where a glycosylated side chain of a translation elongation factor is shown as essential for function. |
Glycan Information | |
Glycan Annotation | Cyclic rhamnose moiety |
Protein Glycosylation linked (PGL) gene(s) | |
Characterized Accessory Gene(s) | EarP rhamnosyltransferase uses dTDP-L-rhamnose as a substrate. |
Additional Comment | It is the first report of N-linked protein glycosylation on arginine in bacteria. Both EF-P and corresponding EarP are essential for pathogenicity. This forms the basis for targeted-inhibitor design against P. aeruginosa infection. Glycosyltransferase EarP attaches a cyclic rhamnose moiety onto EF-P at the amine position of its highly conserved R34 residue. |
