Function
LPLA_ECOLI Catalyzes both the ATP-dependent activation of exogenously supplied lipoate to lipoyl-AMP and the transfer of the activated lipoyl onto the lipoyl domains of lipoate-dependent enzymes. Is also able to catalyze very poorly the transfer of lipoyl and octanoyl moiety from their acyl carrier protein.[1]
