4nhd
From Proteopedia
Crystal structure of beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase III (FabH) from Vibrio Cholerae in complex with Coenzyme A
Function
[FABH1_VIBCH] Catalyzes the condensation reaction of fatty acid synthesis by the addition to an acyl acceptor of two carbons from malonyl-ACP. Catalyzes the first condensation reaction which initiates fatty acid synthesis and may therefore play a role in governing the total rate of fatty acid production. Possesses both acetoacetyl-ACP synthase and acetyl transacylase activities. Its substrate specificity determines the biosynthesis of branched-chain and/or straight-chain of fatty acids (By similarity).
