DESCRIPTION

Also known as LIPT2_HUMAN, LIPT2. Catalyzes the transfer of endogenously produced octanoic acid from octanoyl-acyl-carrier-protein onto the lipoyl domains of lipoate-dependent enzymes, which catalyze essential redox reactions (PubMed:28757203). Lipoyl-ACP can also act as a substrate although octanoyl-ACP is likely to be the physiological substrate (By similarity).
