FUNCTION: Probably plays a role in the assembly of the spore coat proteins by catalyzing epsilon-(gamma-glutamyl)lysine cross-links (By similarity).

CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Protein glutamine + alkylamine = protein N(5)-alkylglutamine + NH(3).

SIMILARITY: Belongs to the bacillus TGase family.

Transferase, Acyltransferase, Sporulation.

GO:0003810; Molecular function: protein-glutamine gamma-glutamyltransferase activity.
GO:0030435; Biological process: sporulation resulting in formation of a cellular spore.
