Enzyme Information

2.3.1.274
Phosphate acyltransferase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q82ZE8
An acyl-[acyl-carrier protein] + phosphate = an acyl phosphate + an [acyl-carrier protein].
-!- The enzyme, found in bacteria, catalyzes the synthesis of fatty acyl- phosphate from acyl-[acyl carrier protein], a step in the most widely distributed bacterial pathway for the initiation of phospholipid formation. -!- While the activity is modestly enhanced by Mg(2+), the enzyme does not require a divalent cation. -!- Formerly EC 2.3.1.n2.
