Comment
In the bacterium Listeria monocytogenes the enzyme takes part in a pathway for scavenging of lipoic acid. The enzyme is bound to 2-oxo-acid dehydrogenases such as the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, where it transfers the lipoyl moiety from lipoyl-[glycine cleavage system H] to the E2 subunits of the complexes.
