Thiolase
From Proteopedia
Contents |
Function
Two different classes of thiolases are found.
- Degrative thiolase like 3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolase (KCT) is involved in fatty acid β oxidation[1].
- Biosynthetic thiolases like acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase (ACT) are involved in the thiolysis of acetoacetyl-CoA[2].
For Bacterial thiolase see Bacterial thiolase
Structural highlights
The active site of 3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolase contains CoA[3].
