Sequence statusComplete.
Protein existenceEvidence at protein level

General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes the final step of fatty acid oxidation in which acetyl-CoA is released and the CoA ester of a fatty acid two carbons shorter is formed. Involved in the aerobic and anaerobic degradation of long-chain fatty acids. Ref.9

Catalytic activity

Acyl-CoA + acetyl-CoA = CoA + 3-oxoacyl-CoA. HAMAP MF_01620

Pathway

Lipid metabolism; fatty acid beta-oxidation. Ref.9

Subunit structure

Heterotetramer of two alpha chains (fadB) and two beta chains (fadA).

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm HAMAP MF_01620.

Induction

Repressed by fadR in the absence of LCFAs (fatty acids of, at least, 12 carbon atoms). When LCFAs are present in the medium, they are converted to long-chain acyl-CoAs which bind to fadR resulting in its release from the DNA and thus derepression of the transcription. HAMAP MF_01620

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the thiolase family.

Biophysicochemical properties

Kinetic parameters:

KM=96 µM for acetoacetyl-CoA Ref.8

KM=102 µM for CoASH
