A Novel Lipoate-Protein Ligase, Mhp-LplJ, Is Required for Lipoic Acid Metabolism in Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae

Lipoic acid is a conserved cofactor necessary for the activation of several critical enzyme complexes in the aerobic metabolism of 2-oxoacids and one-carbon metabolism. Lipoate metabolism enzymes are key for lipoic acid biosynthesis and salvage. In this study, we found that Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae...
