2-Acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (N-C16:0) (ECMDB21142) (M2MDB001551)

General function:

Lipid transport and metabolism

Specific function:

2-lysophosphatidylcholine + H(2)O = glycerophosphocholine + a carboxylate

Gene Name:

pldB

Uniprot ID:

P07000

Molecular weight:

38978

Reactions

General function:

Involved in phospholipase activity

Specific function:

Has broad substrate specificity including hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine with phospholipase A2 (EC 3.1.1.4) and phospholipase A1 (EC 3.1.1.32) activities. Strong expression leads to outer membrane breakdown and cell death; is dormant in normal growing cells. Required for efficient secretion of bacteriocins

Gene Name:

pldA

Uniprot ID:

P0A921

Molecular weight:

33163

Reactions

General function:

Involved in transferase activity, transferring acyl groups

Specific function:

Plays a role in lysophospholipid acylation. Transfers fatty acids to the 1-position via an enzyme-bound acyl-ACP intermediate in the presence of ATP and magnesium. Its physiological function is to regenerate phosphatidylethanolamine from 2-acyl-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (2-acyl-GPE) formed by transacylation reactions or degradation by phospholipase A1

Gene Name:

aas

Uniprot ID:

P31119

Molecular weight:

Reactions

General function:

Involved in lipid binding

Specific function:

Interacts with the peptidoglycan both covalently and noncovalently. This interaction contributes to the maintenance of the structural and functional integrity of the cell envelope
