ENZYME entry: EC 1.14.19.45
| Accepted Name |
|---|
| sn-1 oleoyl-lipid 12-desaturase.
|
| Reaction catalysed |
|---|
| a 1-[(9Z)-octadecenoyl]-2-acyl-glycerolipid + 2 H(+) + O2 + 2 reduced [2Fe-2S]-[ferredoxin] <=> a 1-[(9Z,12Z)-octadecdienoyl]-2-acyl-glycerolipid + 2 H2O + 2 oxidized [2Fe-2S]-[ferredoxin] |
| Comment(s) |
|---|
- The enzyme, characterized from cyanobacteria, introduces a cis double
bond at carbon 12 of oleoyl groups (18:1) attached to the sn-1
position of glycerolipids.
- The enzyme is a methyl-end desaturase, introducing the new double
bond between a pre-existing double bond and the methyl-end of the
fatty acid.
- It is non-specific with respect to the polar head group of the
glycerolipid.
