== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/FAS1_YEAST FAS1_YEAST] Fatty acid synthetase catalyzes the formation of long-chain fatty acids from acetyl-CoA, malonyl-CoA and NADPH. The beta subunit contains domains for: [acyl-carrier-protein] acetyltransferase and malonyltransferase, S-acyl fatty acid synthase thioesterase, enoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] reductase, and 3-hydroxypalmitoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] dehydratase.

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Fatty acids (FAs) play a central metabolic role in living cells as constituents of membranes, cellular energy reserves, and second messenger precursors. A 2.6 MDa FA synthase (FAS), where the enzymatic reactions and structures are known, is responsible for FA biosynthesis in yeast. Essential in the yeast FAS catalytic cycle is the acyl carrier protein (ACP) that actively shuttles substrates, biosynthetic intermediates, and products from one active site to another. We resolve the S. cerevisiae FAS structure at 1.9 A, elucidating cofactors and water networks involved in their recognition. Structural snapshots of ACP domains bound to various enzymatic domains allow the reconstruction of a full yeast FA biosynthesis cycle. The structural information suggests that each FAS functional unit could accommodate exogenous proteins to incorporate various enzymatic activities, and we show proof-of-concept experiments where ectopic proteins are used to modulate FAS product profiles.
