The enzyme oleoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] hydrolase (EC 3.1.2.14) catalyzes the reaction
- an oleoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] + H2O an [acyl-carrier-protein] + oleate
This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on thioester bonds. The systematic name is oleoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] hydrolase. Other names in common use include acyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] hydrolase, acyl-ACP-hydrolase, acyl-acyl carrier protein hydrolase, oleoyl-ACP thioesterase, and oleoyl-acyl carrier protein thioesterase. This enzyme participates in fatty acid biosynthesis.
Structural studies[edit]
As of late 2007, two structures have been solved for this class of enzymes, with PDB accession codes 2OWN and 2PFF.
