- Acetyl-CoA C-myristoyltransferase
In
enzymology , an acetyl-CoA C-myristoyltransferase (EC number|2.3.1.155) is anenzyme that catalyzes thechemical reaction :myristoyl-CoA + acetyl-CoA 3-oxopalmitoyl-CoA + CoA
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are
myristoyl-CoA andacetyl-CoA , whereas its two products are3-oxopalmitoyl-CoA and CoA.This enzyme belongs to the family of
transferase s, specifically thoseacyltransferase s transferring groups other than aminoacyl groups. The systematic name of this enzyme class is myristoyl-CoA:acetyl-CoA C-myristoyltransferase.References
