Example Structure Example Structure of cyclopropane-fatty-acyl-phospholipid synthase EC#: 2.1.1.79
Synonyms C17:cyclopropane synthase, Cfa, CFA synthase, cfaB, CFAS, CPS, CPS1, CPS2, CPS3, cyclopropane fatty acid synthase, cyclopropane fatty acid synthetase, cyclopropane fatty acyl synthase, cyclopropane synthase, cyclopropane-fatty-acyl-phospholipid synthase, SfCPA-FAS, synthetase, cyclopropane fatty acid, unsaturated-phospholipid methyltransferase
EC Number 2.1.1.79
CAS Registry Number 51845-48-8
Comments The enzyme adds a methylene group across the 9,10 position of a ¦¤9-olefinic acyl chain in phosphatidylethanolamine or, more slowly, phosphatidylglycerol or phosphatidylinositol, forming a cyclopropane derivative (cf. EC 2.1.1.16 methylene-fatty-acyl-phospholipid synthase).
Cofactor
History
Reactions S-adenosyl-L-methionine + phospholipid olefinic fatty acid = S-adenosyl- L-homocysteine + phospholipid cyclopropane fatty acid.
