Category:GO:0035380 ! very long-chain-3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase activity

name: very long-chain-3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase activity
namespace: molecular_function
def: "Catalysis of the reaction: (S)-3-hydroxyacyl-CoA + NAD(P)+ = 3-oxoacyl-CoA + NAD(P)H + H+, where the acyl group is a very long-chain fatty acid residue. A very long-chain fatty acid has an aliphatic tail containing more than 22 carbons." [GOC:pde]
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).
