Enoyl-CoA delta isomerase 1, mitochondrial

UniProtKB accession:  P23965

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Key enzyme of fatty acid beta-oxidation (Probable). Able to isomerize both 3-cis (3Z) and 3-trans (3E) double bonds into the 2-trans (2E) form in a range of enoyl-CoA species, with a preference for (3Z)-enoyl-CoAs over (3E)-enoyl-CoAs (PubMed:11781327, PubMed:8218206). The catalytic efficiency of this enzyme is not affected by the fatty acyl chain length (PubMed:11781327).
