Acyl_transf_2

• PFAM accession number: PF02273
• Interpro abstract (IPR003157):

  LuxD proteins are bacterial acyl transferases. Together with an acyl-protein synthetase (LuxE) and reductase (LuxC), they form a multienzyme complex. This complex channels activated fatty acids into the aldehyde substrate for the luciferase-catalyzed bacterial bioluminescence reaction [ (PUBMED:11018714) (PUBMED:8472957) ].

• GO process: fatty acid metabolic process (GO:0006631)
• GO function: transferase activity, transferring acyl groups (GO:0016746)
