Facts about Cytosolic acyl coenzyme A thioester hydrolase.
May play a regulatory role by modulating the cellular levels of fatty acyl- CoA ligands for certain transcription factors in addition to the substrates for fatty acid metabolizing enzymes, leading to lipid homeostasis. Has broad specificity, active towards oily acyl-CoAs with chain-lengths of C8-C18.
