| Synonym(s) | cardiolipin synthetase |
| Definition | Cardiolipin synthetase catalyzes the formation of cardiolipin from two phosphatidylglycerol molecules. Cardiolipin is important in membrane translocation and permeabilization. Current known mutations on the enzyme confer resistance to daptomycin. |
| Drug Class | peptide antibiotic |
