Chasing Acyl Carrier Protein Through a Catalytic Cycle of Lipid A Production
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 24196711
Function
[LPXD_ECOLI] Catalyzes the N-acylation of UDP-3-O-(hydroxymyristoyl)glucosamine using 3-hydroxymyristoyl-ACP as the acyl donor. Is involved in the biosynthesis of lipid A, a phosphorylated glycolipid that anchors the lipopolysaccharide to the outer membrane of the cell. Prefers R-3-hydroxymyristoyl-ACP over R-3-hydroxypalmitoyl-ACP as the acyl donor in vitro, which is consistent with the structure of E.coli lipid A that contains over 95% (R)-3-hydroxymyristate at the 2 and 2' positions.[1] [2] [G7RM21_ECOC1] Carrier of the growing fatty acid chain in fatty acid biosynthesis (By similarity).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01217][RuleBase:RU003545]
