The Escherichia coli Homologue of Yeast Rer2, a Key Enzyme of Dolichol Synthesis, Is Essential for Carrier Lipid Formation in Bacterial Cell Wall Synthesis

We found in the Escherichia coli genome sequence a homologue of RER2, a Saccharomyces cerevisiae gene required for proper localization of an endoplasmic reticulum protein, and designated it rth (RER2 homologue). The disruption of this gene was lethal for E. coli. To reveal its biological function, w...
