ENZYME entry: EC 1.3.1.118

Accepted Name
meromycolic acid enoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] reductase
Reaction catalysed
a 2,3-saturated meromycolyl-[ACP] + NAD(+) = a trans-Delta(2)-meromycolyl-[ACP] + H(+) + NADH
Comment(s)
  • InhA is a component of the fatty acid synthase (FAS) II system of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, catalyzing an enoyl-[acyl-carrier- protein] reductase step.
  • The enzyme acts on very long and unsaturated fatty acids that form the meromycolic component of mycolic acids.
  • It extends FASI-derived C20 fatty acids to form C60 to C90 mycolic acids.
  • The enzyme, which forms a homotetramer, is the target of the preferred antitubercular drug isoniazid.
