Enzyme Information

6.2.1.2
Medium-chain acyl-CoA ligase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q08AH3
ATP + a medium-chain fatty acid + CoA = AMP + diphosphate + a medium- chain acyl-CoA.
-!- Acts on fatty acids from C(4) to C(11) and on the corresponding 3-hydroxy and 2,3- or 3,4-unsaturated acids. -!- The enzyme from the bacterium Pseudomonas putida also acts on 4-oxo and 4-hydroxy derivatives.
