Abstract excerpt
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) acyltransferases of Neisseria meningitidis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae were identified which share homology with other prokaryotic and eukaryotic LPA acyltransferases. In Escherichia coli, the conversion of LPA to phosphatidic acid, performed by the 1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-...
