ENZYME entry: EC 1.3.8.8

PURL: https://purl.expasy.org/enzyme/EC/1.3.8.8
Accepted Name
long-chain-acyl-CoA dehydrogenase
Reaction catalysed
a long-chain 2,3-saturated fatty acyl-CoA + oxidized [electron-transfer flavoprotein] + H(+) = a long-chain (2E)-enoyl-CoA + reduced [electron-transfer flavoprotein]
Comment(s)
  • One of several enzymes that catalyze the first step in fatty acids beta-oxidation.
  • The enzyme from pig liver can accept substrates with acyl chain lengths of 6 to at least 16 carbon atoms.
  • The highest activity was found with C12, and the rates with C8 and C16 were 80% and 70%, respectively.
  • The enzyme from rat can accept substrates with C8-C22.
  • It is most active with C14 and C16, and has no activity with C4, C6 or C24. cf. EC 1.3.8.1, EC 1.3.8.8 and EC 1.3.8.9.
  • Formerly EC 1.3.99.3 and EC 1.3.99.13.
