Comments

Comment type	Description
Alternative Products	Event=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=2; Name=1; IsoId=Q08AH1-1; Sequence=Displayed; Name=2; IsoId=Q08AH1-2; Sequence=VSP_028391;
Catalytic Activity	ATP + a carboxylate + CoA = AMP + diphosphate + an acyl-CoA.
Catalytic Activity	GTP + lipoate = diphosphate + lipoyl-GMP.
Cofactor	Name=Mg(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:18420; Evidence={ECO:0000250};
Function	Has medium-chain fatty acid:CoA ligase activity with broad substrate specificity (in vitro). Acts on acids from C(4) to C(11) and on the corresponding 3-hydroxy- and 2,3- or 3,4- unsaturated acids (in vitro). Functions as GTP-dependent lipoate- activating enzyme that generates the substrate for lipoyltransferase (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
Similarity	Belongs to the ATP-dependent AMP-binding enzyme family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular Location	Mitochondrion matrix {ECO:0000250}.
Subunit	Monomer. {ECO:0000250}.
