1f75 is a 2 chain structure with sequence from Micrococcus luteus. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
UPPS_MICLU Generates ditrans,octacis-undecaprenyl pyrophosphate (UPP) from isopentenyl pyrophosphate (IPP) and farnesyl diphosphate. UPP is the precursor of glycosyl carrier lipid in the biosynthesis of bacterial cell wall polysaccharide components such as peptidoglycan and lipopolysaccharide.[1][2]
