| Official Name |
| Cyclopropane-fatty-acyl-phospholipid synthase.
|
| Alternative Name(s) |
| CFA synthase. |
| Cyclopropane fatty acid synthase. |
| Cyclopropane synthetase. |
| Unsaturated-phospholipid methyltransferase. |
| Reaction catalysed |
| S-adenosyl-L-methionine + phospholipid olefinic fatty acid <=> S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + phospholipid cyclopropane fatty acid |
| Comment(s) |
| Adds a methylene group across the 9,10 position of a
Delta(9)-olefinic acyl chain in phosphatidylethanolamine or, more
