Molecular function

Catalysis of the reaction: a very long-chain fatty acyl-CoA + H2O = a very long-chain fatty acid + CoA + H+. A very long-chain fatty acid has an aliphatic tail containing more than 22 carbons.

very long-chain acyl coenzyme A hydrolase activity, very long-chain acyl-thioester hydrolase activity, very long-chain hydrolase activity, very long-chain-acyl-CoA hydrolase activity

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).
