Beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase II

This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those acyltransferases transferring groups other than aminoacyl groups.

The systematic name of this enzyme class is (Z)-hexadec-11-enoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein]:malonyl-[acyl-carrier-pr otein] C-acyltransferase (decarboxylating).

Other names in common use include KASII, KAS II, FabF, 3-oxoacyl-acyl carrier protein synthase I, and beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase II.

This enzyme participates in fatty acid biosynthesis.
