ENZYME entry: EC 2.1.1.16
| Accepted Name | |
|---|---|
| methylene-fatty-acyl-phospholipid synthase | |
| Alternative Name(s) | |
| cyclopropane synthetase | |
| unsaturated-phospholipid methyltransferase | |
| Reaction catalysed | |
| a 1-acyl-2-(9Z)-enoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospholipid + S-adenosyl-L-methionine = a 1-acyl-2-(10-methylene)-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phospholipid + S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + H(+) | |
| Comment(s) | |
| The enzyme transfers a methyl group to the 10-position of a Delta(9)- olefinic acyl chain in phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, or, more slowly, phosphatidylethanolamine; subsequent proton transfer produces a 10-methylene group (cf. EC 2.1.1.79). | |
