EC 6.2.1.69     
Accepted name: L-cysteine—[L-cysteinyl-carrier protein] ligase
Reaction: ATP + L-cysteine + holo-[L-cysteinyl-carrier protein] = AMP + diphosphate + L-cysteinyl-[L-cysteinyl-carrier protein] (overall reaction)
(1a) ATP + L-cysteine = diphosphate + (L-cysteinyl)adenylate
(1b) (L-cysteinyl)adenylate + holo-[L-cysteinyl-carrier protein] = AMP + L-cysteinyl-[L-cysteinyl-carrier protein]
Other name(s): pchE (gene name); pchF (gene name); angR (gene name)
Systematic name: L-cysteine:[L-cysteinyl-carrier protein] ligase (AMP-forming)
Comments: The adenylation domain of the enzyme catalyses the activation of L-cysteine to (L-cysteinyl)adenylate, followed by the transfer of the activated compound to the free thiol of a phosphopantetheine arm of a peptidyl-carrier protein domain. The peptidyl-carrier protein domain may be part of the same protein, or of a different protein. This activity is often found as part of a larger non-ribosomal peptide synthase.
