EEB1

Gene
EEB1
Protein
Medium-chain fatty acid ethyl ester synthase/esterase 1
Organism
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain ATCC 204508 / S288c)
Length
456 amino acids
Function
Displays enzymatic activity both for medium-chain fatty acid (MCFA) ethyl ester synthesis and hydrolysis (esterase activity). MCFA are toxic for yeast and this enzyme could thus be involved in their detoxification by esterification.
Similarity
Belongs to the AB hydrolase superfamily. AB hydrolase 4 family.
Mass
51.724 kDa
