Type: | Family | Name: | Very-long-chain 3-oxoacyl-CoA reductase, fungal |
Description: | Very-long-chain 3-oxoacyl-CoA reductase () is a component of the microsomal membrane bound fatty acid elongation system, which produces the 26-carbon very long-chain fatty acids (VLCFA) from palmitate. It catalyses the reduction of the 3-ketoacyl-CoA intermediate that is formed in each cycle of fatty acid elongation. VLCFAs serve as precursors for ceramide and sphingolipids [, , ]. | Short Name: | 3_ketoreductase_fungal |
