Beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase III -2 (FabH2) (C113A) from Vibrio Cholerae soaked with octanoyl-CoA: conformational changes without clearly bound substrate
| ||||||||||||
Structural highlights
FunctionFABH2_VIBCH Catalyzes the condensation reaction of fatty acid synthesis by the addition to an acyl acceptor of two carbons from malonyl-ACP. Catalyzes the first condensation reaction which initiates fatty acid synthesis and may therefore play a role in governing the total rate of fatty acid production. Possesses both acetoacetyl-ACP synthase and acetyl transacylase activities. Its substrate specificity determines the biosynthesis of branched-chain and/or straight-chain of fatty acids.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01815] See AlsoContents | ||||||||||||||||||
