palmitoyl-[acyl-carrier protein],reduced ferredoxin:oxygen oxidoreductase (6,7 cis-dehydrogenating)
The enzyme, characterized from the endosperm of the plant Thunbergia alata (black-eyed Susan vine), introduces a cis double bond at carbon 6 of several saturated acyl-[acp]s. It is most active with palmitoyl-[acp] (16:0), but can also act on myristoyl-[acp] (14:0) and stearoyl-[acp] (18:0). The position of the double bond is determined by its distance from the carboxyl end of the fatty acid.

Km-values determined for the wild-type enzyme and mutant A188G/Y189F are in the range of 0.2 to 0.6 mM with both 16:0- and 18:0-[acyl-carrier protein], suggesting that, at least in the case of these enzymes, changes in the substrate binding properties can be discounted as an underlying cause of differences in activities

A181T/A188G/Y189F/S205N/L206T/G207A
-
the mutation yields an enzyme that functions primarily as a DELTA9-18:0-[acyl-carrier protein] desaturase. This enzyme displays only DELTA9 desaturase activity with 18:0-[acyl-carrier protein] and is nearly 4-fold more active with this substrate than with 16:0-[acyl-carrier protein]. Like mutant A181TyA200F, this enzyme retains DELTA6 desaturase activity with 16:0-[acyl-carrier protein]
A181T/A200F
-
the mutation gives rise to an enzyme that catalyzed primarily the DELTA9 desaturation of 18:0-[acyl-carrier protein], but functions as a DELTA6 desaturase with 16:0-[acyl-carrier protein]
