IUBMB Comments

Catalyses the reaction in the opposite direction. This enzyme, purified from the cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942, catalyses the NAD(P)H-dependent reduction of an activated fatty acid (acyl-[acp]) to the corresponding aldehyde. Together with EC 4.1.99.5, octadecanal decarbonylase, it is involved in alkane biosynthesis. The natural substrates of the enzyme are C16 and C18 activated fatty acids. Requires Mg2+.

The expected taxonomic range for this enzyme is: Bacteria, Eukaryota

Synonyms
acyl-acp reductase, acyl-acyl carrier protein reductase, atfar6, fatty acyl-acp reductase, sll0209, acyl-acyl carrier protein (acyl-acp) reductase, more
