Protein Domain : IPR022924

Type:  Family Name:  Cardiolipin synthase
Description:  Most bacteria use an enzyme belonging to the phospholipase D family as cardiolipin synthase. In contrast, eukaryotes and most actinobacteria use a cardiolipin synthase of the CDP-alcohol phosphatidyltransferase family [].This entry represents cardiolipin (CL) synthases that belong to the phospholipase D family. They catalyse the reversible phosphatidyl group transfer from one phosphatidylglycerol molecule to another to form cardiolipin (diphosphatidylglycerol) and glycerol []. Bacillus subtilis has three genes (clsA, ywjE and ywiE) for CL synthase; the main role in CL synthesis being played by clsA []. Short Name:  Cardiolipin_synthase
