fatty-acyphospholipid synthase
Enzyme Commission Number
EC 2.1.1.16
Product Overview
High-quality enzyme products.
Well-established quality management system.
Reaction
S-adenosyl-L-methionine + phospholipid olefinic fatty acid = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + phospholipid methylene fatty acid
Systematic Name
S-adenosyl-L-methionine:unsaturated-phospholipid methyltransferase (methenylating)
Function
The enzyme transfers a methyl group to the 10-position of a Δ-olefinic acyl chain in phosphatidylglycerol or phosphatidylinositol or, more slowly, phosphatidylethanolamine; subsequent proton transfer produces a 10-methylene group (cf. EC 2.1.1.79 cyclopropane-fatty-acyl-phospholipid synthase).
Other name
unsaturated-phospholipid methyltransferase
Production Methods
Fermentation

Appearance / Form
powder or liquid
Odor
Normal microbial fermentation odour.
WARNINGS
Keep sealed after use every time to avoid microbial infections and inactivation of enzymes until its finish.
