Acyl coenzyme A synthetase

Acyl coenzyme A synthetase (ACS), namely acetyl coenzyme A synthetase, is often used in biochemical research. Acyl coenzyme A synthetase can catalyze the activation of fatty acids by coenzyme A through a two-step thioesterification reaction to produce acyl coenzyme A, and then participate in a variety of anabolic and catabolic lipid metabolism pathways, and participate in the TCA cycle in aerobic respiration[1].
