Description
This enzyme, which has been characterized from the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1, catalyses the condensation of octanoyl-CoA, obtained from exogenously supplied fatty acids via β-oxidation, with malonyl-[acp], forming 3-oxodecanoyl-[acp], an intermediate of the fatty acid elongation cycle. The enzyme provides a shunt for β-oxidation degradation intermediates into de novo fatty acid biosynthesis.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC~-80 ºC.
Reaction
octanoyl-CoA + a malonyl-[acyl-carrier protein] = a 3-oxodecanoyl-[acyl-carrier protein] + CoA + CO2
