BRITE hierarchy
Sysname
1-acyl-2-palmitoyl-[glycerolipid],ferredoxin:oxygen oxidoreductase (3,4-trans -dehydrogenating)
Reaction(IUBMB)
a 1-acyl-2-palmitoyl-[glycerolipid] + 2 reduced ferredoxin [iron-sulfur] cluster + O2 + 2 H+ = a 1-acyl-2-[(3E)-hexadec-3-enoyl]-[glycerolipid] + 2 oxidized ferredoxin [iron-sulfur] cluster + 2 H2O
Substrate
1-acyl-2-palmitoyl-[glycerolipid];
reduced ferredoxin [iron-sulfur] cluster [CPD:
C00138 ];
O2 [CPD:
C00007 ];
H+ [CPD:
C00080 ]
Product
1-acyl-2-[(3E)-hexadec-3-enoyl]-[glycerolipid];
oxidized ferredoxin [iron-sulfur] cluster [CPD:
C00139 ];
H2O [CPD:
C00001 ]
Comment
The enzyme introduces an unusual trans double bond at carbon 3 of a palmitoyl group attached to the sn-2 position of glycerolipids. The enzyme from the plant Arabidopsis thaliana is specific for palmitate in phosphatidylglycerol. The enzyme from tobacco can also accept oleate and alpha-linolenate if present at the sn-2 position of phosphatidylglycerol [1].
