catalytic activity:Palmitoyl-CoA + H(2)O = CoA + palmitate.,function:Acyl-CoA thioesterases are a group of enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of acyl-CoAs to the free fatty acid and coenzyme A (CoASH), providing the potential to regulate intracellular levels of acyl-CoAs, free fatty acids and CoASH.,similarity:Belongs to the C/M/P thioester hydrolase family.,
Peroxisome .
Strongest expression in liver and kidney and weaker expression in placenta, heart, and muscle.
