Short- and medium-chain fatty acids don't have hydrolysis rxns #689
Comments
Good question. Currently, almost all reactions in the I initially thought that defining new reactions with just use the same GPR string will suffice, I think other entries also need a bit of curation. From a quick look to respective UniProt entries, some of these enzymes are known to have higher specificity for [very] long-chain fatty acids, and ACOT4 is even labelled as peroxisomal isoform in UniProt, thus should not be associated to the cytoplasmic acyl-CoA hydrolysis reactions. |
good
it does appear so. Maybe begin with sorting out cytoplasmic acyl-CoA hydrolysis reactions first, please go ahead proposing an implementation plan |
Hi there,
As you could see in the .csv summary, many ACOTs localize to mitochondria as well. Thus a potential next step in curation would be to add analogous hydrolysis reactions for mitochondrial acyl-CoAs. |
@pranasag sorry for late response - very nice and thorough investigation. Please go ahead to make the changes!

Current behavior:
Hi everyone,
after the fix #557/discussion in #527, the Human-GEM v1.16 cannot produce free C4-C11 fatty acids (the ATP-generating reaction was the only route to get free FAs from their CoA-bound forms). Acyl-CoA hydrolysis reactions for C12 and longer FAs exist already.
Expected feature/value/output:
We would need cytosolic reactions for C4-, C6-, C8-, C10-, and C11-CoA hydryolysis in the same spirit as for C12 MAR00189:
H2O[c] + acyl-CoA[c] => CoA[c] + H+[c] + free fatty acid[c]
