- 1-alkylglycerophosphocholine O-acyltransferase
In
enzymology , a 1-alkylglycerophosphocholine O-acyltransferase (EC number|2.3.1.63) is anenzyme that catalyzes thechemical reaction :acyl-CoA + 1-alkyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine CoA + 2-acyl-1-alkyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are
acyl-CoA and1-alkyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine , whereas its two products are CoA and2-acyl-1-alkyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine .This enzyme belongs to the family of
transferase s, specifically thoseacyltransferase s transferring groups other than aminoacyl groups. The systematic name of this enzyme class is acyl-CoA:1-alkyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine O-acyltransferase. This enzyme participates inether lipid metabolism .References
