Dodecanoyl-(acyl-carrier-protein) hydrolase

The enzyme dodecanoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] hydrolase (EC 3.1.2.21) catalyzes the reaction


 * a dodecanoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] + H2O $$\rightleftharpoons$$ an [acyl-carrier-protein] + dodecanoate

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on thioester bonds. The systematic name is dodecanoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] hydrolase. Other names in common use include lauryl-acyl-carrier-protein hydrolase, dodecanoyl-acyl-carrier-protein hydrolase, dodecyl-acyl-carrier protein hydrolase, and dodecanoyl-[acyl-carrier protein] hydrolase.
