EC 1.3.1.9 Details
EC number
1.3.1.9
Accepted name
enoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] reductase (NADH)
Reaction
an acyl-[acyl-carrier protein] + NAD+ = a trans-2,3-dehydroacyl-[acyl-carrier protein] + NADH + H+
Other name(s)
enoyl-[acyl carrier protein] reductase, enoyl-ACP reductase, NADH-enoyl acyl carrier protein reductase, NADH-specific enoyl-ACP reductase, acyl-[acyl-carrier-protein]:NAD+ oxidoreductase, fabI (gene name)
Systematic name
acyl-[acyl-carrier protein]:NAD+ oxidoreductase
CAS registry number
37251-08-4
Comment
The enzyme catalyses an essential step in fatty acid biosynthesis, the reduction of the 2,3-double bond in enoyl-acyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] derivatives of the elongating fatty acid moiety. The enzyme from the bacterium Escherichia coli accepts substrates with carbon chain length from 4 to 18 [3]. The FAS-I enzyme from the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis prefers substrates with carbon chain length from 12 to 24 carbons.
