Category:GO:0031957 ! very long-chain fatty acid-CoA ligase activity
name: very long-chain fatty acid-CoA ligase activity
namespace: molecular_function
def: "Catalysis of the reaction: a very long-chain fatty acid + ATP + CoA = a very long-chain fatty acyl-CoA + AMP + diphosphate. A very long-chain fatty acid has an aliphatic tail containing more than 22 carbons." [PMID:18024425, RHEA:54536]
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).
