FASN Protein, Human (sf9, His)

FASN (fatty acid synthase) is a multifunctional enzyme that is key to the de novo biosynthesis of long-chain saturated fatty acids from acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA using NADPH. This multifunctional protein contains seven catalytic activities and has an acyl carrier protein (ACP) domain with a binding site for the prosthetic group 4'-phosphopantetheine. FASN Protein, Human (sf9, His) is the recombinant human-derived FASN protein, expressed by sf9 insect cells , with N-8*His labeled tag.

Fatty Acid Synthase (FASN) is a multifunctional enzyme crucial for the de novo biosynthesis of long-chain saturated fatty acids, utilizing acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA in the presence of NADPH. This versatile protein possesses seven catalytic activities and a binding site for the prosthetic group 4'-phosphopantetheine of the acyl carrier protein (ACP) domain. Significantly, FASN plays a pivotal role in the replication of SARS coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), the virus responsible for COVID-19, as its enzymatic activity is required for the viral replication process.
