Acyl-CoA thioesterase 9 is a

hydrolyze Coenzyme A esters. There is no known function, however it has been shown to act as a long-chain thioesterase at low concentrations, and a short-chain thioesterase at high concentrations.[5]

Gene

Locus

The ACOT9 gene is located at p22.11 on

base pairs.[6]

Aliases

ACOT9 gene is known primarily for encoding the Acyl-CoA thioesterase 9 protein. Other, less commonly used names for the gene are ACATE2,[7] and MT-ACT48.[8]

Function

The protein encoded by the ACOT9 gene is part of a family of Acyl-CoA thioesterases, which catalyze the hydrolysis of various Coenzyme A esters of various molecules to the free acid plus CoA. These enzymes have also been referred to in the literature as acyl-CoA hydrolases, acyl-CoA thioester hydrolases, and palmitoyl-CoA hydrolases. The reaction carried out by these enzymes is as follows:

CoA ester + H2O → free acid + coenzyme A

These enzymes use the same

NADH/NAD+ ratio in order to maintain optimal mitochondrial beta oxidation of fatty acids.[17] The role of CoA esters in lipid metabolism and numerous other intracellular processes are well defined, and thus it is hypothesized that ACOT- enzymes play a role in modulating the processes these metabolites are involved in.[18]

Orthologs

There are many

orthologs of ACOT9, the house mouse (Mus musculus) being one of the most similar, where the ACOT9 gene is found at 72.38cM on chromosome X.[19] The range of orthologs extends to mammals, birds, amphibians, anamorphic fungi, and others.[citation needed

Secondary structure

There are two regions in the ACOT9 gene sequence that are labeled as BFIT (Brown Fat Inducible Thioesterase) and BACH (Brain Acyl CoA Hydrolase) regions. These regions are part of a hotdog fold

alpha-helices throughout the structure,[24] suggesting it is a transmembrane protein
.
