GO
GO:0016020 A lipid bilayer along with all the proteins and protein complexes embedded in it and attached to it. GO:0009245 The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of lipid A, the glycolipid group of bacterial lipopolysaccharides, consisting of four to six fatty acyl chains linked to two glucosamine residues. Further modifications of the backbone are common. GO:0016740 Catalysis of the transfer of a group, e.g. a methyl group, glycosyl group, acyl group, phosphorus-containing, or other groups, from one compound (generally regarded as the donor) to another compound (generally regarded as the acceptor). Transferase is the systematic name for any enzyme of EC class 2. GO:0005886 The membrane surrounding a cell that separates the cell from its external environment. It consists of a phospholipid bilayer and associated proteins. GO:0008913 Catalysis of the reaction: a fatty acyl-[ACP] + an alpha-Kdo-(2->4)-alpha-Kdo-(2->6)-lipid IVA = an alpha-Kdo-(2->4)-alpha-Kdo-(2->6)-(acyl)-lipid IVA + holo-[ACP]. GO:0036104 The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of Kdo2-lipid A, a lipopolysaccharide (LPS) component.
