Acyl-CoA thioesterase 9 is a protein that is encoded by the human ACOT9gene. It is a member of the acyl-CoA thioesterase superfamily, which is a group of enzymes that hydrolyzeCoenzyme Aesters. There is no known function, however it has been shown to act as a long-chain thioesterase at low concentrations, and a short-chain thioesterase at high concentrations.[5]
