ENTRY EC 6.2.1.19
NAME Long-chain-fatty-acid--luciferin-component ligase
Acyl-protein synthetase
CLASS Ligases
Forming carbon-sulfur bonds
Acid--thiol ligases
SYSNAME Long-chain-fatty-acid:protein ligase (AMP-forming)
REACTION ATP + an Acid + Protein = AMP + Pyrophosphate +
an Acyl-protein thiolester
SUBSTRATE ATP
Acid
Protein
PRODUCT AMP
Pyrophosphate
Acyl-protein thiolester
COMMENT Together with EC 1.2.1.50 forms a fatty acid reductase system
which produces the substrate of EC 1.14.14.3, thus being a
component of the bacterial luciferase system.
