Data class Protein
Names FabH



Identifier FABH
Protein name
RecName: Full=3-oxoacyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] synthase 3;
EC=2.3.1.180;
AltName: Full=3-oxoacyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] synthase III;
AltName: Full=Beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase III;
Short=KAS III;
Gene name fabH
FUNCTION: Catalyzes the condensation reaction of fatty acid synthesis by the addition to an acyl acceptor of two carbons from malonyl-ACP. Catalyzes the first condensation reaction which initiates fatty acid synthesis and may therefore play a role in governing the total rate of fatty acid production. Possesses both acetoacetyl-ACP synthase and acetyl transacylase activities. Its substrate specificity determines the biosynthesis of branched-chain and/or straight-chain of fatty acids (By similarity).
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Acetyl-CoA + malonyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] = acetoacetyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] + CoA + CO(2).
PATHWAY: Lipid metabolism; fatty acid biosynthesis.
SUBUNIT: Homodimer (By similarity).

case <OG:Chloroplast>
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Plastid, chloroplast.
end case


case not <OG:Chloroplast>
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm (By similarity).
end case

DOMAIN: The last Arg residue of the ACP-binding site is essential for the weak association between ACP/AcpP and FabH (By similarity).
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the FabH family.
