ENZYME entry: EC 2.3.1.242

Accepted Name

Kdo(2)-lipid IV(A) palmitoleoyltransferase.

Alternative Name(s)

(Kdo)(2)-lipid IV(A) palmitoleoyltransferase.

Alpha-Kdo-(2->4)-alpha-(2->6)-lipid IV(A) palmitoleoyltransferase.

Cold-induced palmitoleoyl transferase.

Palmitoleoyl-acyl carrier protein-dependent acyltransferase.

Reaction catalysed

A (9Z)-hexadecenoyl-[acyl-carrier protein] + alpha-Kdo-(2->4)-alpha-Kdo-(2->6)-lipid IV(A) <=> (Kdo)(2)-((9Z)-hexadecenoyl)-lipid IV(A) + a holo-[acyl-carrier protein]

Comment(s)

The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Escherichia coli, is induced upon cold shock and is involved in the formation of a cold-adapted variant of the outer membrane glycolipid lipid A.
