Comment typeDescription
Catalytic ActivityStearoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] + reduced acceptor + O(2) = oleoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] + acceptor + 2 H(2)O.
CofactorName=Fe cation; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:24875; Evidence={ECO:0000250}; Note=Binds 2 iron ions per subunit. {ECO:0000250};
FunctionConverts stearoyl-ACP to oleoyl-ACP by introduction of a cis double bond between carbons Delta(9) and Delta(10) of the acyl chain. {ECO:0000250}.
PathwayLipid metabolism; fatty acid metabolism.
