| Accepted Name | |
|---|---|
| Methylene-fatty-acyl-phospholipid synthase. | |
| Alternative Name(s) | |
| Cyclopropane synthetase. | |
| Unsaturated-phospholipid methyltransferase. | |
| Reaction catalysed | |
| S-adenosyl-L-methionine + phospholipid olefinic fatty acid <=> S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + phospholipid methylene fatty acid | |
| 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). | |
