FadD, Recombinant, E. coli, aa1-561, His-Tag (Long-chain-fatty-acid--CoA Ligase)

Catalyzes the esterification, concomitant with transport, of exogenous long-chain fatty acids into metabolically active CoA thioesters for subsequent degradation or incorporation into phospholipids. Activity is the highest with fatty acid substrates of >10 carbon atoms. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa1-561 from E. coli fadD, fused to His-Tag at N-terminal, expressed in E. coli.
