General annotation (Comments)

Function

Part of a lipoate-protein ligase complex that catalyzes both the ATP-dependent activation of exogenously supplied lipoate to lipoyl-AMP and the transfer of the activated lipoyl onto the lipoyl domains of lipoate-dependent enzymes. Can also use octanoate as substrate. Ref.2 Ref.3 Ref.4 Ref.5

Catalytic activity

ATP + lipoate = diphosphate + lipoyl-AMP. Ref.3 Ref.4

Lipoyl-AMP + protein = protein N(6)-(lipoyl)lysine + AMP. Ref.3 Ref.4

Pathway

Protein modification; protein lipoylation via exogenous pathway; protein N(6)-(lipoyl)lysine from lipoate: step 1/2. Ref.3 Ref.4

Protein modification; protein lipoylation via exogenous pathway; protein N(6)-(lipoyl)lysine from lipoate: step 2/2.

Subunit structure

Heterodimer composed of LplA and LplB. Ref.2 Ref.3 Ref.4

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm By similarity.

Miscellaneous

In contrast to E.coli, where the lipoate-protein ligase is encoded by a single gene product (LplA) with a large N-terminal domain and a small C-terminal domain, the same activity in T.acidophilum is dependent on two separate proteins, corresponding to the two domains of E.coli LplA, respectively.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the lplA family.

Mass spectrometry

Molecular mass is 29872±3 Da from positions 1 - 262. Determined by ESI. Ref.2
