| Name | very long-chain fatty-acyl-CoA metabolic process |
| ID | GO_0036111 |
| collection_id | Biological process |
| Exact synonym | very long-chain fatty acyl CoA metabolic process, very long-chain fatty acyl-CoA metabolism |
| Description | The chemical reactions and pathways involving very long-chain fatty-acyl-CoAs, any derivative of coenzyme A in which the sulfhydryl group is in a thioester linkage with a very long-chain fatty-acyl group. A very long-chain fatty acid has an aliphatic tail containing more than 22 carbons. |
| Comment | While there is not universal consensus on the lengths of short-, medium-, long- and very-long-chain fatty acids, the GO uses the definitions in ChEBI (see CHEBI:26666, CHEBI:59554, CHEBI:15904 and CHEBI:27283). |
