Enzyme Commission Number
EC 2.1.1.16
Product Overview
High-quality enzyme products.
Well-established quality management system.
Reaction
S-adenosyl-L-methionine + phospholipid olefinic fatty acid = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + phospholipid methylene fatty acid
Systematic Name
S-adenosyl-L-methionine:unsaturated-phospholipid methyltransferase (methenylating)
Function
The enzyme transfers a methyl group to the 10-position of a Δ-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).
Other name
unsaturated-phospholipid methyltransferase
Production Methods
Fermentation
Package
on customer request
Applications
Research Use
Storage
Should be stored in a dry and cool place, avoiding high temperature.
Appearance / Form
powder or liquid
Odor
Normal microbial fermentation odour.
WARNINGS
Keep sealed after use every time to avoid microbial infections and inactivation of enzymes until its finish.
Description
Microbial enzymes have been used in a large number of fields, such as chemical, agricultural and biopharmaceutical industries. Our enzyme production services are based on bacteria, fungi, and yeast, from strain selection, optimization, and process development to scale-up production.
