"Acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 6 (ACSL6) associated with the plasma membrane catalyzes the reaction of palmitate, CoASH, and ATP to form palmitoyl-CoA, AMP, pyrophosphate, and water. In the body, ACSL6 is found in red blood cells. It is active on oleic acid as well as palmitic acid (Malhotra et al. 1999)."^^ . . . . . . "palmitate + CoASH + ATP => palmitoyl-CoA + AMP + pyrophosphate + H2O [ACSL6]"^^ . "6.2.1.3"^^ . . . . . . . .
