Other name(s): |
SCP2 (gene name); peroxisomal thiolase 2; sterol carrier protein-χ; SCPχ; PTE-2 (ambiguous); propionyl-CoA C2-trimethyltridecanoyltransferase; 3-oxopristanoyl-CoA hydrolase; 3-oxopristanoyl-CoA thiolase; peroxisome sterol carrier protein thiolase; sterol carrier protein; oxopristanoyl-CoA thiolase; peroxisomal 3-oxoacyl coenzyme A thiolase; SCPx; 4,8,12-trimethyltridecanoyl-CoA:propanoyl-CoA 2-C-4,8,12-trimethyltridecanoyltransferase |
Systematic name: |
3α,7α,12α-trihydroxy-5β-cholanoyl-CoA:propanoyl-CoA C-acyltransferase |
Comments: |
Also acts on dihydroxy-5β-cholestanoyl-CoA and other branched chain acyl-CoA derivatives. The enzyme catalyses the penultimate step in the formation of bile acids. The bile acid moiety is transferred from the acyl-CoA thioester (RCO-SCoA) to either glycine or taurine (NH2R′) by EC 2.3.1.65, bile acid-CoA:amino acid N-acyltransferase [3]. |
