Recombinant Human 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydratase 1 (PTPLA), Truncated

Uniprot Id

B0YJ81

Target Species

Human

Target Name

HACD1

Target Full Name

Very-long-chain (3R)-3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydratase 1

Target Function

Catalyzes the third of the four reactions of the long-chain fatty acids elongation cycle. This endoplasmic reticulum-bound enzymatic process, allows the addition of two carbons to the chain of long- and very long-chain fatty acids/VLCFAs per cycle. This enzyme catalyzes the dehydration of the 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA intermediate into trans-2,3-enoyl-CoA, within each cycle of fatty acid elongation. Thereby, it participates in the production of VLCFAs of different chain lengths that are involved in multiple biological processes as precursors of membrane lipids and lipid mediators.; In tooth development, may play a role in the recruitment and the differentiation of cells that contribute to cementum formation. May also bind hydroxyapatite and regulate its crystal nucleation to form cementum

Target Involvement

Myopathy, congenital, with fiber-type disproportion (CFTD)

Target Subcellular Location

[Isoform 1]: Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.

Target Protein Families

Very long-chain fatty acids dehydratase HACD family

Target Tissue Specificity

Isoform 1 is highly expressed in the myocardium, and to a lesser extent in skeletal and smooth muscular tissues including those from stomach, jejunum, and bladder. Also detected in gingival fibroblasts, periodontal ligament cells, osteoblasts and cementob
