A single-domain response regulator activates exopolysaccharide synthesis by interacting with the initiating phosphoglycosyl transferase

Johannes Schwabe, Julia Monjarás Feria, Timo Glatter, Patrick Blumenkamp, Oliver Rupp, Alexander Goesmann, Miguel A. Valvano, Lotte Søgaard‐Andersen

This paper shows that phosphorylated EpsW activates exopolysaccharide biosynthesis by promoting EpsZ dimerization in Myxococcus xanthus.

Identification of EcpK, a bacterial tyrosine pseudokinase important for exopolysaccharide biosynthesis in Myxococcus xanthus

Luca Bloecher, Johannes Schwabe, Timo Glatter, Lotte Søgaard‐Andersen

This study identifies EcpK as a bacterial tyrosine pseudokinase essential for exopolysaccharide biosynthesis in Myxococcus xanthus, showing it functions as a scaffold rather than through phosphorylation.
