The Escherichia coli lipB gene encodes lipoyl (octanoyl)-acyl carrier protein:protein transferase.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Mar 2003

Jordan Sean W, Cronan John E

Abstract excerpt

In an earlier study (S. W. Jordan and J. E. Cronan, Jr., J. Biol. Chem. 272:17903-17906, 1997) we reported a new enzyme, lipoyl-[acyl carrier protein]-protein N-lipoyltransferase, in Escherichia coli and mitochondria that transfers lipoic acid from lipoyl-acyl carrier protein to the lipoyl domains of pyruvate dehydrogenase. It was also shown that E. coli lipB mutants lack this enzyme activity, a finding...
