In enzymology a long-chain-fatty-acyl-CoA reductase (EC 1.2.1.50) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactiona long-chain aldehyde + CoA + NADP+ a long-chain acyl-CoA + NADPH + H+The 3 substrates of this enzyme are long-chain aldehyde CoA and NADP+ whereas its 3 products are long-chain acyl-CoA NADPH and H+.This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases specifically those acting on the aldehyde or oxo group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor.
