A Novel Lysophosphatidic Acid Acyltransferase of <i>Escherichia coli</i> Produces Membrane Phospholipids with a <i>cis</i>-vaccenoyl Group and Is Related to Flagellar Formation

Lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase (LPAAT) introduces fatty acyl groups into the <i>sn</i>-2 position of membrane phospholipids (PLs). Various bacteria produce multiple LPAATs, whereas it is believed that <i>Escherichia coli</i> produces only one essential LPAAT homolog, P...
