Acyl-CoA thioesterases, such as ACOT2, are a group of enzymes that hydrolyze [[Coenzyme A]] (CoA) [[ester]]s, such as acyl-CoAs, bile CoAs, and CoA esters of prostaglandins, to the corresponding free acid and CoA.<ref name="pmid16103133">{{cite journal | vauthors = Hunt MC, Yamada J, Maltais LJ, Wright MW, Podesta EJ, Alexson SE | title = A revised nomenclature for mammalian acyl-CoA thioesterases/hydrolases | journal = Journal of Lipid Research | volume = 46 | issue = 9 | pages =
== Function ==
The protein encoded by the ACOT2 gene is part of a family of [[Acyl-CoA]] [[thioesterase]]s, 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 [[enzyme]]s is as follows:
CoA ester + H<sub>2</sub>O → free acid + coenzyme A
These enzymes use the same [[substrate (chemistry)|substrate]]s as long-chain acyl-CoA synthetases, but have a unique purpose in that they generate the free acid and CoA, as opposed to long-chain acyl-CoA synthetases, which ligate fatty acids to CoA, to produce the CoA ester.<ref>{{cite journal |
