Template:Infobox enzyme The enzyme ADP-dependent short-chain-acyl-CoA hydrolase (EC 3.1.2.18) catalyzes the reaction
- acyl-CoA + H2O CoA + a carboxylate
This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on thioester bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is ADP-dependent-short-chain-acyl-CoA hydrolase. Other names in common use include short-chain acyl coenzyme A hydrolase, propionyl coenzyme A hydrolase, propionyl-CoA hydrolase, propionyl-CoA thioesterase, short-chain acyl-CoA hydrolase, and short-chain acyl-CoA thioesterase. It employs one cofactor, ADP. At least one compound, NADH is known to inhibit this enzyme.
