| == Function ==3-Ketoacyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP) reductase (KAR) catalyses the second step of the mtFAS pathway . Although all the other mtFAS enzymes identified thus far are encoded by single genes, human KAR (HsKAR) is a heterotetrametric α2β2 enzyme formed by two subunits, 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 8 (HSD17B8 or KE6, α-subunit) and carbonyl reductase type 4 (CBR4 or SDR45C1, β-subunit)9. HsHSD17B8 is expressed in abundance in the prostate, placenta and kidney, and has been shown to catalyse the reversible oxidation/reduction of steroid molecules in vitro. The physiological roles of HSD17B8 and CBR4 have remained elusive, and information is only available from studies of the respective homotetramers. | | == Function == Keto acyl carrier protein reductase (KAR) is a heterotetrameric complex made from two different polypeptides: 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 8 (HSD17B8 or KE6, α-subunit) and carbonyl reductase type 4 (CBR4 or SDR45C1, β-subunit)9. it catalyzes the second step of the mitochondrial fatty acid synthesis (mtFAS) pathway. |

Structural highlights
NADP is bound in each of the four subunits in heterotetrameric structure. glycerol is also bound in the structure.
This is a sample scene created with SAT to color by Group, and another to make a transparent representation of the protein. You can make your own scenes on SAT starting from scratch or loading and editing one of these sample scenes.
