Comments | InhA is a component of the fatty acid synthase (FAS) II system of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, catalysing an enoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] reductase step. The enzyme acts on very long and unsaturated fatty acids that form the meromycolic component of mycolic acids. It extends FASI-derived C20 fatty acids to form C60 to C90 mycolic acids. The enzyme, which forms a homotetramer, is the target of the preferred antitubercular drug isoniazid. |
