The enzyme ADP-dependent medium-chain-acyl-CoA hydrolase (EC 3.1.2.19) catalyzes the reaction

acyl-CoA + H2O CoA + a carboxylate

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on thioester bonds. The systematic name is ADP-dependent-medium-chain-acyl-CoA hydrolase. Other names in common use include medium-chain acyl coenzyme A hydrolase, medium-chain acyl-CoA hydrolase, medium-chain acyl-thioester hydrolase, medium-chain hydrolase, and myristoyl-CoA thioesterase. It employs one cofactor, ADP. At least one compound, NADH is known to inhibit this enzyme.
