Forming carbon-sulfur bonds;
Acid-thiol ligases
BRITE hierarchy
Sysname
long-chain fatty acid:holo-[mycocerosate synthase] ligase (AMP-forming)
Reaction(IUBMB)
ATP + a long-chain fatty acid + holo-[mycocerosate synthase] = AMP + diphosphate + a long-chain acyl-[mycocerosate synthase] (overall reaction);
(1a) ATP + a long-chain fatty acid = diphosphate + a long-chain acyl-adenylate ester;
(1b) a long-chain acyl-adenylate ester + holo-[mycocerosate synthase] = AMP + a long-chain acyl-[mycocerosate synthase]
Substrate
ATP [CPD:
C00002 ];
long-chain fatty acid [CPD:
C00638 ];
holo-[mycocerosate synthase];
long-chain acyl-adenylate ester
Product
AMP [CPD:
C00020 ];
diphosphate [CPD:
C00013 ];
long-chain acyl-[mycocerosate synthase];
long-chain acyl-adenylate ester
Comment
The enzyme, found in certain mycobacteria, activates long-chain fatty acids by adenylation and transfers them to EC
2.3.1.111 , mycocerosate synthase. The enzyme participates in the biosynthesis of the virulent lipids dimycocerosates (DIM) and dimycocerosyl triglycosyl phenolphthiocerol (PGL).
History
EC 6.2.1.49 created 2016 as EC 2.7.7.95, transferred 2017 to EC 6.2.1.49
