Product Name mycolipenoyl-CoA-2-(long-chain-fatty acyl)-trehalose mycolipenoyltransferase
Example Structure Example Structure of mycolipenoyl-CoA-2-(long-chain-fatty acyl)-trehalose mycolipenoyltransferase EC#: 2.3.1.278
Synonyms papA3
EC Number 2.3.1.278
CAS Registry Number
Comments The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis, participates in the biosynthesis of polyacyltrehalose (PAT), a pentaacylated, trehalose-based glycolipid found in the cell wall of pathogenic strains. The enzyme catalyses two successive activities – it first transfers an acyl (often palmitoyl) group to position 2 (see EC 2.3.1.279, long-chain-acyl-CoA¡ªtrehalose acyltransferase), followed by the transfer of a mycolipenyl group to position 3.
