Stearic acid (ECMDB21428) (M2MDB001823)

General function:

Involved in transferase activity

Specific function:

Malonyl-CoA + [acyl-carrier-protein] = CoA + malonyl-[acyl-carrier-protein]

Gene Name:

fabD

Uniprot ID:

P0AAI9

Molecular weight:

32417

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

Reactions

General function:

Involved in catalytic activity

Specific function:

Catalyzes the esterification, concomitant with transport, of exogenous long-chain fatty acids into metabolically active CoA thioesters for subsequent degradation or incorporation into phospholipids
