In enzymology, an ecdysone O-acyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.139) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- palmitoyl-CoA + ecdysone CoA + ecdysone palmitate
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are palmitoyl-CoA and ecdysone, whereas its two products are CoA and .
This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those acyltransferases transferring groups other than aminoacyl groups. The systematic name of this enzyme class is palmitoyl-CoA:ecdysone palmitoyltransferase. Other names in common use include acyl-CoA:ecdysone acyltransferase, and fatty acyl-CoA:ecdysone acyltransferase.
