Ketoacyl synthase, a Common card
Ketoacyl synthases catalyze the condensation reaction of acyl-CoA or acyl-acyl ACP with malonyl-CoA to form 3-ketoacyl-CoA or with malonyl-ACP to form 3-ketoacyl-ACP.

Power 120 (ATK + DEF): stronger than 70 % of WikiCards cards.
The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- This reaction is a key step in the fatty acid synthesis cycle, as the resulting acyl chain is two carbon atoms longer than before.
- KSs exist as individual enzymes, as they do in type II fatty acid synthesis and type II polyketide synthesis, or as domains in large multidomain enzymes, such as type I fatty acid synthases and polyketide synthases.
- KSs are divided into five families: KS1, KS2, KS3, KS4, and KS5.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Ketoacyl synthase article was read about 1,400 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 63 and blocks with 57: each hit it takes is cut by 23 %.
How to get Ketoacyl synthase
Open packs. Each pack holds five cards drawn from real Wikipedia articles, the rarest last, and the fifth card is always Rare or better. The odds are shown in the game. A free pack arrives every hour and two can wait, and the Coins you win in duels buy more packs.
