Fatty acid activation and lysophospholipid recycling in C. trachomatis. The amino-terminus of bacterial lipoproteins (apo-Lpp) are acylated by the transfer of fatty acids from the 1-position of PE to generate 2-acyl-glycerophosphoethanolamine (2-acyl-GPE) and acylated lipoproteins (Lpp). Other phospholipid species can also be used in the reaction. The 2-acyl-GPE is reacylated by LpaT using acyl-ACP. Acyl-ACP is derived from FASII or by the activation of exogenous fatty acids by AasC.
