Protein attributes

Sequence length	208 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is not processed.
Protein existence	Inferred from homology.

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Required for the synthesis of OHHL (N-(3-oxooctanoyl)-L-homoserine lactone), an autoinducer molecule which binds to traR and thus acts in the control of conjugal transfer By similarity.
Catalytic activity	An acyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] + S-adenosyl-L-methionine = [acyl-carrier-protein] + S-methyl-5'-thioadenosine + an N-acyl-L-homoserine lactone.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the autoinducer synthetase family.
