Comment | Involved in lipoate biosynthesis as the main determinant of the lipoyl-protein ligase activity required for lipoylation of enzymes such as alpha-ketoacid dehydrogenases. Involved in activation and re-activation (following denaturation) of lipoyl-protein ligases (calcium ion-dependant process). |
