Name | SCD5 |
---|---|
Function | Stearoyl-CoA desaturase that utilizes O(2) and electrons from reduced cytochrome b5 to introduce the first double bond into saturated fatty acyl-CoA substrates. Catalyzes the insertion of a cis double bond at the delta-9 position into fatty acyl-CoA substrates including palmitoyl-CoA and stearoyl-CoA (PubMed:15610069, PubMed:15907797, PubMed:22745828). Gives rise to a mixture of 16:1 and 18:1 unsaturated fatty acids (PubMed:15610069, PubMed:15907797). Involved in neuronal cell proliferation and differentiation through down-regulation of EGFR/AKT/MAPK and Wnt signaling pathways (PubMed:22745828). |
Cellular Location | Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein |
Tissue Location | Detected in fetal brain, and at lower levels in fetal kidney. Detected in adult brain and pancreas, and at lower levels in kidney and lung. Expressed in spiral ganglion cells and the organ of Corti of fetal cochlea (PubMed:31972369). |

Background
Stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD; EC 1.14.99.5) is an integralmembrane protein of the endoplasmic reticulum that catalyzes theformation of monounsaturated fatty acids from saturated fattyacids. SCD may be a key regulator of energy metabolism with a rolein obesity and dislipidemia. Four SCD isoforms, Scd1 through Scd4,have been identified in mouse. In contrast, only 2 SCD isoforms,SCD1 (MIM 604031) and SCD5, have been identified in human. SCD1shares about 85% amino acid identity with all 4 mouse SCD isoforms,as well as with rat Scd1 and Scd2. In contrast, SCD5 shares limitedhomology with the rodent SCDs and appears to be unique to primates(Wang et al., 2005 [PubMed 15907797]).
