Lipoyl synthase, mitochondrial

BE0002327ProteinHumansLIAS

Catalyzes the radical-mediated insertion of two sulfur atoms into the C-6 and C-8 positions of the octanoyl moiety bound to the lipoyl domains of lipoate-dependent enzymes, thereby converting the octanoylated domains into lipoylated derivatives. It is acted on by 1 drug in DrugBank.
