General annotation (Comments)

Function	Acyl-CoA thioesterases are a group of enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of acyl-CoAs to the free fatty acid and coenzyme A (CoASH), providing the potential to regulate intracellular levels of acyl-CoAs, free fatty acids and CoASH. Has acyl-CoA thioesterase activity towards medium (C12) and long-chain (C18) fatty acyl-CoA substrates. Can also hydrolyze 3-hydroxyphenylacetyl-CoA and 3,4-dihydrohyphenylacetyl-CoA (in vitro). Ref.7 Ref.8
Subunit structure	Homotetramer. Ref.7 Ref.8
Subcellular location	Cytoplasm By similarity. Mitochondrion By similarity.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the thioesterase paaI family.
Biophysicochemical properties	Kinetic parameters: KM=4.9 µM for n-decanoyl-CoA KM=26 µM for n-octanoyl-CoA KM=5 µM for myristoyl-CoA KM=9 µM for palmitoyl-CoA KM=9 µM for oleoyl-CoA KM=10 µM for 3,4-dihydrohyphenylacetyl-CoA KM=40 µM for 3-hydrohyphenylacetyl-CoA
