Publication Abstract from PubMed Carnitine palmitoyltransferases (CPTs) are part of the enzymatic system that imports fatty acids into mitochondria. The crystal structure of rat CPT-2 by Rufer et al. (2006) (this issue of Structure) reveals a Y-shaped tunnel for binding the CoA and acyl-carnitine substrates and a hydrophobic insert mediating membrane association. A monotopic membrane protein goes solo.,Mattevi A Structure. 2006 Apr;14(4):628-9. PMID:16615901 From MEDLINE®/PubMed®, a database of the U.S. National Library of Medicine.
