ACOT8 Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 342 amino acids (1-319) and having a molecular mass of 38.3kDa. ACOT8 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. Acyl-CoA Thioesterase 8 (ACOT8) is a group of enzymes which catalyze the hydrolysis of acyl-CoAs to the free fatty acid and coenzyme A (CoASH), granting the potential to regulate intracellular levels of acyl-CoAs, free fatty acids and CoASH. ACOT8 mediate Nef-induced down-regulation of CD4. ACOT8 contends with BAAT (Bile acid CoA: amino acid N-acyltransferase) for bile acid-CoA substrate (such as chenodeoxycholoyl-CoA). ACOT8 prefers medium-length fatty acyl-CoAs.
