4.C.1.1.3
Long chain fatty acid transporter/acyl-CoA synthetase, Fat1 or FACL6, of 597 aas and 0 TMSs. It is a peripherally membrane-attached protein that activates a broad spectrum of substrates (Mater et al. 2022). It activates fatty acids and thereby modulates the accumulation of triacylglycerol-containing lipid droplets that are used by Mb as an energy source during dormancy. Substrates include saturated and unsaturated fatty acids (C12-C20), some cholic acid derivatives, and even synthetic fatty acids, such as 9(E)-nitrooleicacid (Mater et al. 2022).
