EC 6.2.1.42     
Accepted name: 3-oxocholest-4-en-26-oate—CoA ligase
Reaction: ATP + (25S)-3-oxocholest-4-en-26-oate + CoA = AMP + diphosphate + (25S)-3-oxocholest-4-en-26-oyl-CoA

Other name(s): fadD19 (gene name)
Systematic name: (25S)-3-oxocholest-4-en-26-oate:CoA ligase (AMP-forming)
Comments: The enzyme, characterized from actinobacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis, catalyses a step in the degradation of cholesterol. It is responsible for the activation of the C8 side chain. 3β-hydroxycholest-5-en-26-oate can also be used as substrate.
