Scd3 - stearoyl-coenzyme A desaturase 3

Predicted to enable iron ion binding activity; palmitoyl-CoA 9-desaturase activity; and stearoyl-CoA 9-desaturase activity. Predicted to be involved in monounsaturated fatty acid biosynthetic process; response to fatty acid; and unsaturated fatty acid biosynthetic process. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Predicted to be integral component of endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Orthologous to human SCD (stearoyl-CoA desaturase).
