Glycoprotein O-fatty-acyltransferase

In enzymology, a glycoprotein O-fatty-acyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.142) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

palmitoyl-CoA + mucus glycoprotein $\rightleftharpoons$ CoA + O-palmitoylglycoprotein

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are palmitoyl-CoA and mucus glycoprotein, whereas its two products are CoA and O-palmitoylglycoprotein. Enzymes are Biomolecules that catalyze ( ie increase the rates of Chemical reactions Almost all enzymes are Proteins This article is about the Enzyme Commission codes For the European Commission system for coding chemicals see EC-No. Enzymes are Biomolecules that catalyze ( ie increase the rates of Chemical reactions Almost all enzymes are Proteins Catalysis is the process in which the rate of a Chemical reaction is increased by means of a Chemical substance known as a catalyst A chemical reaction is a process that always results in the interconversion of Chemical substances The substance or substances initially involved in a chemical reaction are called Palmitoyl CoA is a molecule used to synthesize Sphingosine: Additional images Palmitoyl CoA is a Acyl-CoA thioeste A product is a substance that forms as a result of a Biological - or Chemical reaction. Coenzyme A ( CoA, CoASH, or HSCoA) is a Coenzyme, notable for its role in the synthesis and oxidation of Fatty acids

This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those acyltransferases transferring groups other than aminoacyl groups. In Biochemistry, a transferase is an Enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of a Functional group (e Acyltransferase is a type of Transferase Enzyme which acts upon Acyl groups The systematic name of this enzyme class is fatty-acyl-CoA:mucus-glycoprotein fatty-acyltransferase. This enzyme is also called protein acyltransferase.
