In
enzymology, a dolichol O-acyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.123) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- palmitoyl-CoA + dolichol CoA + dolichyl palmitate
Thus, the two
substrates of this enzyme are palmitoyl-CoA and dolichol, whereas its two products are CoA and dolichyl palmitate
.
This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those acyltransferases transferring groups other than aminoacyl groups. The systematic name of this enzyme class is palmitoyl-CoA:dolichol O-palmitoyltransferase. This enzyme is also called acyl-CoA:dolichol acyltransferase.
