Fatty acid synthase acetyl CoA+7 propyl=acid CoA+14NADPH+14H+→ palmitic acid+7CO2+8CoA+14NADP++6H2O.The enzyme that catalyzes the above reaction is called fatty acid synthase, butYeast enzymeThe final product ofPalmitic acid CoA。stayEscherichia coliThe enzymes and ACP of each part of the reaction are not combined together, but in animals and yeast, various enzymes are combined, forming the so-calledMultienzyme complex。
Chinese name
Fatty acid synthase
Foreign name
fatty acid synthetase
During the condensation of malonyl and acetyl, each time the C2 unit is extended, a reduction reaction occurs at the same time. In this complex reaction, there are corresponding enzymes involved.The acyl group is transferred toAcyl carrier protein(ACP) in the form of binding with this protein.It can be generated through repeated reactionpalmitic acid。stayEscherichia coliThe enzymes and ACP of each part of the reaction are not combined together, but in animals and yeast, various enzymes are combined, forming the so-calledMultienzyme complex。
