abstract：:Type A Pasteurella multocida, an animal pathogen, employs a hyaluronan [HA] capsule to avoid host defenses. PmHAS, the 972-residue membrane-associated hyaluronan synthase, catalyzes the transfer of both GlcNAc and GlcUA to form the HA polymer. To define the catalytic and membrane-associated domains, pmHAS mutants were...
