(2E)-enoyl-[ACP] glycyltransferase

UniProtKB accession:  P9WM67

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Involved in the biosynthesis of a unique class of isonitrile lipopeptides (INLPs) that seem to function as virulence factors in M.tuberculosis and to play a role in metal acquisition (PubMed:28634299). Catalyzes a Michael addition of glycine to the beta-position of an alpha,beta-unsaturated fatty acyl-[ACP], producing a (3R)-3-[(carboxymethyl)amino]fatty acid. Acts on the (2E)-decenoyl moiety loaded on the acyl-carrier protein (ACP) Rv0100, forming the product (3R)-3-[(carboxymethyl)amino]decanoate released from the ACP (By similarity). Displays thioesterase activity with a preference for long chain fatty acyl groups; in vitro, cleaves the thioester linkage of palmitoyl-CoA, stearoyl-CoA, lauroyl-CoA and hexanoyl-CoA (PubMed:17524985). Contains low levels of trans-enoyl hydratase activity (PubMed:19136596).
