FunFam 287896: Fatty acyl-CoA reductase 1

There are 4 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
Fatty acyl-CoA reductase. [EC: 1.2.1.n2]
Hexadecanal + CoA + NADP(+) = hexadecanoyl-CoA + NADPH.

    Aryl-aldehyde dehydrogenase (NADP(+)). [EC: 1.2.1.30]
    An aromatic aldehyde + NADP(+) + AMP + diphosphate + H(2)O = an aromatic acid + NADPH + ATP.

      Long-chain-fatty-acid--CoA ligase. [EC: 6.2.1.3]
      ATP + a long-chain fatty acid + CoA = AMP + diphosphate + an acyl-CoA.
      • Acts on a wide range of long-chain saturated and unsaturated fatty acids, but the enzymes from different tissues show some variation in specificity.
      • The liver enzyme acts on acids from C(6) to C(20); that from brain shows high activity up to C(24).
      1 A0A0B6WU16
      Alcohol-forming fatty acyl-CoA reductase. [EC: 1.2.1.84]
      A long-chain acyl-CoA + 2 NADPH = CoA + a long-chain alcohol + 2 NADP(+).
      • The enzyme has been characterized from the plant Simmondsia chinensis (jojoba).
      • The alcohol is formed by a four-electron reduction of fatty acyl-CoA.
      • Although the reaction proceeds through an aldehyde intermediate, a free aldehyde is not released.
      • The recombinant enzyme was shown to accept saturated and mono- unsaturated fatty acyl-CoAs of 16 to 22 carbons.
