THEM5

Gene
Them5
Protein
Acyl-coenzyme A thioesterase THEM5
Organism
Mus musculus
Length
248 amino acids
Function
Has acyl-CoA thioesterase activity towards long-chain (C16 and C18) fatty acyl-CoA substrates, with a preference for linoleoyl-CoA and other unsaturated long-chain fatty acid-CoA esters (By similarity). Plays an important role in mitochondrial fatty acid metabolism, and in remodeling of the mitochondrial lipid cardiolipin (PubMed:22586271). Required for normal mitochondrial function (PubMed:22586271).
Similarity
Belongs to the THEM4/THEM5 thioesterase family.
