| Accepted name: |
glycerol-3-phosphate 1-O-acyltransferase |
| Reaction: |
acyl-CoA + sn-glycerol 3-phosphate = CoA + 1-acyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate |
| Other name(s): |
α-glycerophosphate acyltransferase; 3-glycerophosphate acyltransferase; ACP:sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase; glycerol 3-phosphate acyltransferase; glycerol phosphate acyltransferase; glycerol phosphate transacylase; glycerophosphate acyltransferase; glycerophosphate transacylase; sn-glycerol 3-phosphate acyltransferase; sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase; glycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase (ambiguous) |
| Systematic name: |
acyl-CoA:sn-glycerol-3-phosphate 1-O-acyltransferase |
| Comments: |
Acyl-[acyl-carrier protein] can also act as acyl donor. The enzyme acts only on derivatives of fatty acids of chain length larger than C10. |
