Term Name:	lipoate-protein ligase activity
Synonyms:	lipoate-protein ligase A activity, lipoate-protein ligase activity (lipoylation of glycine cleavage complex), lipoate-protein ligase B activity
Definition:	Catalysis of the lipoylation of a protein in two steps: ATP + (R)-lipoate + a [lipoyl-carrier protein]-L-lysine = a [lipoyl-carrier protein]-N6-(lipoyl)lysine + AMP + diphosphate (overall reaction): (1) ATP + (R)-lipoate = lipoyl-AMP + diphosphate; (2) lipoyl-AMP + a [lipoyl-carrier protein]-L-lysine = a [lipoyl-carrier protein]-N6-(lipoyl)lysine + AMP.
