- Plasmanylethanolamine desaturase
In
enzymology , a plasmanylethanolamine desaturase (EC number|1.14.99.19) is anenzyme that catalyzes thechemical reaction :O-1-alkyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine + AH2 + O2 O-1-alk-1-enyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine + A + 2 H2O
The 3 substrates of this enzyme are
O-1-alkyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine ,AH2 , and O2, whereas its 3 products areO-1-alk-1-enyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine ,A , and H2O.This enzyme belongs to the family of
oxidoreductase s, specifically those acting on paired donors, with O2 as oxidant and incorporation or reduction of oxygen. The oxygen incorporated need not be derive from O miscellaneous. The systematic name of this enzyme class is O-1-alkyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine,hydrogen-donor:oxy gen oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include alkylacylglycerophosphoethanolamine desaturase, alkylacylglycero-phosphorylethanolamine dehydrogenase, dehydrogenase, alkyl-acylglycerophosphorylethanolamine, 1-O-alkyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylethanolamine desaturase, and 1-O-alkyl 2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylethanolamine desaturase. This enzyme participates inether lipid metabolism . It has 3 cofactors: ATP,Manganese , andMagnesium .References
