Fatty acid synthetase catalyzes the formation of long-chain fatty acids from acetyl-CoA, malonyl-CoA and NADPH. The alpha subunit contains domains for: acyl carrier protein, 3-oxoacyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] reductase, and 3-oxoacyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] synthase. This subunit coordinates the binding of the six beta subunits to the enzyme complex.

Belongs to the thiolase-like superfamily. Fungal fatty acid synthetase subunit alpha family.
