In enzymology, a fatty-acyl-ethyl-ester synthase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are long-chain-fatty-acyl ethyl ester and H2O, whereas its two products are long-chain-fatty acid and ethanol.
This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on carboxylic ester bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is long-chain-fatty-acyl-ethyl-ester acylhydrolase. This enzyme is also called FAEES.
