| Accepted name: |
[acyl-carrier-protein] phosphodiesterase |
| Reaction: |
holo-[acyl-carrier protein] + H2O = 4′-phosphopantetheine + apo-[acyl-carrier protein] |
| Other name(s): |
ACP hydrolyase; ACP phosphodiesterase; AcpH; [acyl-carrier-protein] 4′-pantetheine-phosphohydrolase; holo-[acyl-carrier-protein] 4′-pantetheine-phosphohydrolase |
| Systematic name: |
holo-[acyl-carrier protein] 4′-pantetheine-phosphohydrolase |
| Comments: |
The enzyme cleaves acyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] species with acyl chains of 6-16 carbon atoms although it appears to demonstrate a preference for the unacylated acyl-carrier protein (ACP) and short-chain ACPs over the medium- and long-chain species [3]. Deletion of the gene encoding this enzyme abolishes ACP cofactor turnover in vivo [3]. Activation of apo-ACP to form the holoenzyme is carried out by EC 2.7.8.7, holo-[acyl-carrier-protein] synthase. |
