Beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase : ウィキペディア英語版 | Beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase
In molecular biology, Beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase , is an enzyme involved in fatty acid synthesis. It results in the formation of acetoacetyl ACP. It is the enzyme that catalyses the condensation of malonyl-ACP with the growing fatty acid chain. It is found as a component of a number of enzymatic systems, including fatty acid synthetase (FAS), which catalyses the formation of long-chain fatty acids from acetyl-CoA, malonyl-CoA and NADPH; the multi-functional 6-methysalicylic acid synthase (MSAS) from ''Penicillium patulum'', which is involved in the biosynthesis of a polyketide antibiotic; polyketide antibiotic synthase enzyme systems; ''Emericella nidulans'' multifunctional protein Wa, which is involved in the biosynthesis of conidial green pigment; ''Rhizobium'' nodulation protein nodE, which probably acts as a beta-ketoacyl synthase in the synthesis of the nodulation Nod factor fatty acyl chain; and yeast mitochondrial protein CEM1. The condensation reaction is a two-step process: first the acyl component of an activated acyl primer is transferred to a cysteine residue of the enzyme and is then condensed with an activated malonyl donor with the concomitant release of carbon dioxide. Beta-ketoacyl synthase contains two protein domains. The active site is located between the N- and C-terminal domains. The N-terminal domain contains most of the structures involved in dimer formation and also the active site cysteine. Residues from both domains contribute to substrate binding and catalysis〔 〕 ==See also==
