In enzymology, a dodecanoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] hydrolase (EC 3.1.2.21) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

dodecanoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] + H2O [acyl-carrier-protein] + dodecanoate

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are [[dodecanoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein]]] and H2O, whereas its two products are acyl-carrier-protein and dodecanoate.

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on thioester bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is dodecanoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] hydrolase. Other names in common use include lauryl-acyl-carrier-protein hydrolase, dodecanoyl-acyl-carrier-protein hydrolase, dodecyl-acyl-carrier protein hydrolase, and dodecanoyl-[acyl-carrier protein] hydrolase.
