Contrary to PimB, the mannosyltransferase PimA is unable to transfer a mannose residue to the position 6 of the phosphatidyl-myo-inositola of PIM1.<ref>PMID:12068013</ref> <ref>PMID:19638342</ref> | [[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/PIMA_MYCS2 PIMA_MYCS2]] Catalyzes the addition of a mannose residue from GDP-D-mannose to the position 2 of a phosphatidyl-myo-inositol (PI) to generate a phosphatidyl-myo-inositol bearing an alpha-1,2-linked mannose residue (PIM1).

| + | Secondary structure refolding is a key event in biology as it modulates the conformation of many proteins in the cell, generating functional or aberrant states. The crystal structures of mannosyltransferase PimA reveal an exceptional flexibility of the protein along the catalytic cycle, including beta-strand-to-alpha-helix and alpha-helix-to-beta-strand transitions. These structural changes modulate catalysis and are promoted by interactions of the protein with anionic phospholipids in the membrane. | ||
