EC 2.3.1.155

Names

Accepted name:
acetyl-CoA C-myristoyltransferase
Other names:
3-oxopalmitoyl-CoA hydrolase
3-oxopalmitoyl-CoA-CoA acetyltransferase
myristoyl-CoA C-acetyltransferase
Systematic name:
myristoyl-CoA:acetyl-CoA C-myristoyltransferase

Reaction

Comments:

A peroxisomal enzyme involved in branched chain fatty acid β-oxidation in peroxisomes. It differs from EC 2.3.1.154 (propionyl-CoA C2-trimethyldecanoyltransferase) in not being active towards 3-oxopristanoyl-CoA.
