Protein Name:
Enoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] reductase, mitochondrial
|
UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: Q9V6U9 (Q9V6U9)
Gene Name:
Mecr
Organism: Drosophila melanogaster (Fruit fly)
Function: Catalyzes the NADPH-dependent reduction of trans-2-enoyl thioesters in mitochondrial fatty acid synthesis (fatty acid synthesis type II). Fatty acid chain elongation in mitochondria uses acyl carrier protein (ACP) as an acyl group carrier, but the enzyme accepts both ACP and CoA thioesters as substrates in vitro (By similarity). Involved in iron homeostasis; affecting Fe-S cluster assembly and ceramide metabolism (PubMed:37653044). Required for proper morphology and bioenergetic functions of mitochondria (PubMed:37653044). Required for maintenance of neurons, including photoreceptor neurons (PubMed:37653044)
