Abstract excerpt
Phosphatidylglycerophosphate (PG-P) synthase catalyzes the synthesis of PG-P from CDP-diacylglycerol and sn-glycerol 3-phosphate and functions as the committed and rate-limiting step in the biosynthesis of cardiolipin (CL). In eukaryotic cells, CL is found predominantly in the inner mitochondrial membrane and is generally thought to be an essential component of many mitochondrial functions. We have determined...
