CC -!- FUNCTION: In fatty acid biosynthesis chain termination and release of CC the free fatty acid product is achieved by hydrolysis of the thio ester CC by a thioesterase I, a component of the fatty acid synthetase complex. CC The chain length of the released fatty acid is usually C16. However, in CC the mammary glands of non-ruminant mammals, and in the uropygial gland CC of certain waterfowl there exists a second thioesterase which releases CC medium-chain length fatty acids (C8 to C2). CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: CC Reaction=(9Z)-octadecenoyl-[ACP] + H2O = (9Z)-octadecenoate + holo- CC [ACP] + H(+); Xref=Rhea:RHEA:15057, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:9685, Rhea:RHEA- CC COMP:9924, ChEBI:CHEBI:15377, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:30823, CC ChEBI:CHEBI:64479, ChEBI:CHEBI:78783; EC=3.1.2.14; CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the thioesterase family. {ECO:0000305}.
