INTRODUCTION
ACOT11 belongs to the acyl-CoA thioesterase family which catalyses the transformation of activated fatty acids to the equivalent non-esterified fatty acid and coenzyme A. Expression of a mouse homolog in brown adipose tissue is induced by low temperatures and inhibited by high temperatures. Obesity-resistant mice demonstrated High levels of expression compared with obesity-prone mice, indicating BFIT takes part in acyl-CoA thioesterase 11 in obesity. BFIT has acyl-CoA thioesterase activity towards medium (C12) and long-chain (C18) fatty acyl-CoA substrates.

DESCRIPTION
ACOT11 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain topological domain containing 268 amino acids (19-250 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 29.9kDa. ACOT11 is fused to a 36 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus.
