Acyl-CoA thioesterase is an enzyme that catalyzes the cleavage of thioester bonds and regulates the cellular concentrations of CoASH, fatty acids, and acyl-CoA. In this study, we report the crystal structure of acyl-CoA thioesterase from Bacillus cereus ATCC 14579 (BcACT1) complexed with the CoA product. BcACT1 possesses a monomeric structure of a hotdog-fold and forms a hexamer via the trimerization of three dimers. We identified the active site of BcACT1 and revealed that residues Asn23 and Asp38 are crucial for enzyme catalysis, in
