| Type: | Family | Name: | Cardiolipin synthase, Firmicutes-type |
| Description: | This entry represents cardiolipin synthases (Cls) mostly from Firmicutes. Cardiolipin (CL) synthases 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 []. This entry includes ClsA and YwiE proteins from Bacillus subtilis []. | Short Name: | Cardiolipin_synth_Firmi |
