name: very-long-chain fatty acyl-CoA oxidase activity
namespace: molecular_function
def: "Catalysis of the reaction: a very-long-chain 2,3-saturated fatty acyl-CoA + O2 = a very-long-chain (2E)-enoyl-CoA + H2O2." [PMID:17458872, RHEA:78847]
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).
