Accepted name: |
trans-2-decenoyl-[acyl-carrier protein] isomerase |
Reaction: |
a trans-dec-2-enoyl-[acyl-carrier protein] = a cis-dec-3-enoyl-[acyl-carrier protein] |
Other name(s): |
β-hydroxydecanoyl thioester dehydrase; trans-2-cis-3-decenoyl-ACP isomerase; trans-2,cis-3-decenoyl-ACP isomerase; trans-2-decenoyl-ACP isomerase; FabM; decenoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] Δ2-trans-Δ3-cis-isomerase |
Systematic name: |
decenoyl-[acyl-carrier protein] Δ2-trans-Δ3-cis-isomerase |
Comments: |
While the enzyme from Escherichia coli is highly specific for the 10-carbon enoyl-ACP, the enzyme from Streptococcus pneumoniae can also use the 12-carbon enoyl-ACP as substrate in vitro but not 14- or 16-carbon enoyl-ACPs [3]. ACP can be replaced by either CoA or N-acetylcysteamine thioesters. The cis-3-enoyl product is required to form unsaturated fatty acids, such as palmitoleic acid and cis-vaccenic acid, in dissociated (or type II) fatty-acid biosynthesis. |
