A new review finds that ACSL4 currently has the strongest disease-specific evidence among long-chain acyl-CoA synthetases across six female reproductive disorders, while other isoforms remain largely ...

Acyl-CoA thioesterase 7 (ACOT7) is a major isoform of the ACOT family that catalyzes hydrolysis of fatty acyl-CoAs to free fatty acids and CoA-SH. However, canonical and non-canonical functions of ...

Acyl carrier protein (ACP) plays a central role in fatty acid biosynthesis, acting as a molecular "shuttle" that carries, protects, and delivers elongating acyl chains to various enzymatic partners.

Acyl carrier proteins (ACPs) are more important than they sound. Their name suggests they are simply biochemical beasts of burden. They indeed do carry substrates around and deliver them to different ...
