short-chain fatty acid-CoA ligase activity

Term Information

Feedback 
Accession
GO:0031955
Name
short-chain fatty acid-CoA ligase activity
Ontology
molecular_function
Synonyms
short-chain fatty-acid-CoA ligase activity, short-chain-fatty-acid-CoA ligase activity, short-chain fatty acid activation
Alternate IDs
None
Definition
Catalysis of the reaction: a short-chain fatty acid + ATP + CoA = a short-chain fatty acyl-CoA + AMP + diphosphate. A short-chain fatty acid has an aliphatic tail containing fewer than 6 carbons. Source: PMID:34904027, RHEA:52860
Comment
While there is not universal consensus on the lengths of short-, medium-, long- and very-long-chain fatty acids, the GO uses the definitions in ChEBI (see CHEBI:26666, CHEBI:59554, CHEBI:15904 and CHEBI:27283).
