Catalytic ActivityATP + a long-chain fatty acid + CoA = AMP + diphosphate + an acyl-CoA.
CofactorName=Mg(2+); Xref=ChEBI
DiseaseAlport syndrome with mental retardation, midface hypoplasia and elliptocytosis (ATS-MR) [MIM
DiseaseMental retardation, X-linked 63 (MRX63) [MIM
FunctionActivation of long-chain fatty acids for both synthesis of cellular lipids, and degradation via beta-oxidation. Preferentially uses arachidonate and eicosapentaenoate as substrates.
SimilarityBelongs to the ATP-dependent AMP-binding enzyme family.
