👉 Ectocelic is a term used in biochemistry to describe enzymes that are active primarily in the cytoplasm and not in the nucleus. These enzymes are typically found in cells where they perform biochemical reactions, such as catalyzing reactions that require energy or substrates. In the context of eicosic acids, ectocelic enzymes are those that produce eicosic acids (a type of fatty acid) primarily in the cytoplasm. Ectocelic enzymes can also be found
