3-oxoacyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] synthase III FabH (beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase III) (KAS III); 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. Has some substrate specificity for long chain acyl-CoA such as myristoyl-CoA. Does not use acyl-CoA as primer. Its substrate spec [...]

NADH-dependent enoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] reductase InhA (NADH-dependent enoyl-ACP reductase); Enoyl-ACP reductase of the type II fatty acid syntase (FAS- II) system, which is involved in the biosynthesis of mycolic acids, a major component of mycobacterial cell walls. Catalyzes the NADH-dependent reduction of the double bond of 2-trans- enoyl-[acyl-carrier protein], an essential step in the fatty acid elongation cycle of the FAS-II pathway. Shows preference for long-chain fatty acyl thioester substrates (>C16), and can also use 2-trans-enoyl-CoAs as alternative substrates. The mycob [...]

3-oxoacyl-[acyl-carrier protein] synthase 1 KasA (beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase) (KAS I); Catalyzes the condensation reaction of fatty acid synthesis by the addition to an acyl acceptor of two carbons from malonyl-ACP. Belongs to the thiolase-like superfamily. Beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthases family.
