alcohol-forming fatty acyl-CoA reductase

inquiry

Cat No.

EXWM-1187

Description

The enzyme has been characterized from the plant Simmondsia chinensis (jojoba). The alcohol is formed by a four-electron reduction of fatty acyl-CoA. Although the reaction proceeds through an aldehyde intermediate, a free aldehyde is not released. The recombinant enzyme was shown to accept saturated and mono-unsaturated fatty acyl-CoAs of 16 to 22 carbons.

Form

Liquid or lyophilized powder

Enzyme Commission Number

EC 1.2.1.84

Storage

Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC～-80 ºC.

Synonyms

FAR (gene name); long-chain acyl-CoA:NADPH reductase

Reaction

a long-chain acyl-CoA + 2 NADPH + 2 H+ = a long-chain alcohol + 2 NADP+ + coenzyme A
