Protein Domain : Fatty acid synthase subunit alpha, acyl carrier domain

Primary Identifier  IPR040899 Type  Domain
Short Name  Fas_alpha_ACP
description  This is the acyl carrier domain (ACP) found in fatty acid synthase subunit alpha (FAS2). The fungal type I fatty acid synthase (FAS) is a 2.6 MDa multienzyme complex, catalyzing all necessary steps for the synthesis of long acyl chains. To be catalytically competent, the FAS must be activated by a posttranslational modification of the central acyl carrier domain (ACP) by an intrinsic phosphopantetheine transferase (PPT) [].
