Lipoate–protein ligase

Lipoate–protein ligase (, LplA, lipoate protein ligase, lipoate–protein ligase A, LPL, LPL-B) is an enzyme with systematic name ATP:lipoate adenylyltransferase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

(1) ATP + lipoate diphosphate + lipoyl-AMP (2) lipoyl-AMP + apoprotein protein N6-(lipoyl)lysine + AMP

This enzyme requires Mg2+ as a cofactor.
