| Sysname |
S-adenosyl-L-methionine:unsaturated-phospholipid methyltransferase
(methenylating) |
| Reaction(IUBMB) |
S-adenosyl-L-methionine + phospholipid olefinic fatty acid =
S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + phospholipid methylene fatty acid
[RN:R03410] |
| Reaction(KEGG) |
R03410
 |
| Substrate |
S-adenosyl-L-methionine [CPD:C00019];
phospholipid olefinic fatty acid [CPD:C01229] |
| Product |
S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine [CPD:C00021];
phospholipid methylene fatty acid [CPD:C04215] |
| Comment |
The enzyme transfers a methyl group to the 10-position of a
Delta-olefinic acyl chain in phosphatidylglycerol or
phosphatidylinositol or, more slowly, phosphatidylethanolamine;
subsequent proton transfer produces a 10-methylene group (cf. EC
2.1.1.79 cyclopropane-fatty-acyl-phospholipid synthase). |
