SYSTEMATIC NAMEIUBMB Comments
octanoyl-[acyl-carrier protein]:protein N-octanoyltransferaseThis is the first committed step in the biosynthesis of lipoyl cofactor. Lipoylation is essential for the function of several key enzymes involved in oxidative metabolism, as it converts apoprotein into the biologically active holoprotein. Examples of such lipoylated proteins include pyruvate dehydrogenase (E2 domain), 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase (E2 domain), the branched-chain 2-oxoacid dehydrogenases and the glycine cleavage system (H protein) [2,3]. Lipoyl-ACP can also act as a substrate [4] although octanoyl-ACP is likely to be the true substrate [6] . The other enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of lipoyl cofactor is EC 2.8.1.8, lipoyl synthase. An alternative lipoylation pathway involves EC 2.7.7.63, lipoate---protein ligase, which can lipoylate apoproteins using exogenous lipoic acid (or its analogues).

GENERAL INFORMATIONORGANISM UNIPROT ACCESSION NO.COMMENTARYLITERATURE
metabolismEscherichia coli-The LipB octanoyltransferase catalyzes the first step of lipoic acid synthesis in Escherichia coli, transfer of the octanoyl moiety from octanoyl-acyl carrier protein to the lipoyl domains of the E2 subunits of the 2-oxoacid dehydrogenases of aerobic metabolism.704311
metabolismPlasmodium falciparum-The apicoplast-specific LipB is dispensable for parasite growth due to functional redundancy of the parasite’s lipoic acid/octanoic acid ligases/transferases.706425
physiological functionEscherichia coli-LipB (EC 2.3.11.181) is responsible for octanoylation of the E2 components of 2-oxoacid dehydrogenases to provide the substrates of LipA (EC 2.7.7.63), an S-adenosyl-L-methionine radical enzyme that inserts two sulfur atoms into the octanoyl moiety to give the active lipoylated dehydrogenase complexes712504
