Comments [?]

case <OC:Escherichia>
FUNCTIONCatalyzes the transfer of myristate from myristoyl-[acyl- carrier-protein] (ACP) to Kdo(2)-(lauroyl)-lipid IV(A) to form Kdo(2)- lipid A.
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY Reaction=alpha-Kdo-(2->4)-alpha-Kdo-(2->6)-(dodecanoyl)-lipid IVA (E. coli) + tetradecanoyl-[ACP] = alpha-Kdo-(2->4)-alpha-Kdo-(2->6)-lipid A (E. coli) + holo-[ACP]; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:28438, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:9648, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:9685, ChEBI:CHEBI:58540, ChEBI:CHEBI:61524, ChEBI:CHEBI:64479, ChEBI:CHEBI:78477; EC=2.3.1.243;
else
FUNCTIONCatalyzes the transfer of an acyl chain from an acyl-[acyl- carrier-protein] (ACP) to a Kdo(2)-(acyl)-lipid IV(A) to form a Kdo(2)- lipid A.
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY Reaction=a fatty acyl-[ACP] + an alpha-Kdo-(2->4)-alpha-Kdo-(2->6)- (acyl)-lipid IVA = an alpha-Kdo-(2->4)-alpha-Kdo-(2->6)-lipid A + holo-[ACP]; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:69400, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:9685, Rhea:RHEA- COMP:14125, ChEBI:CHEBI:64479, ChEBI:CHEBI:138651, ChEBI:CHEBI:176430, ChEBI:CHEBI:176431; EC=2.3.1.243;
end case
