Polyphosphate Kinase 2 (PPK2) Enzymes: Structure, Function, and Roles in Bacterial Physiology and Virulence
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "International Journal of Molecular Sciences"
DOI: 10.3390/ijms23020670
Abstract: Inorganic polyphosphate (polyP) has been implicated in an astonishing array of biological functions, ranging from phosphorus storage to molecular chaperone activity to bacterial virulence. In bacteria, polyP is synthesized by polyphosphate kinase (PPK) enzymes, which… read more here.
