Summary
Enables long-chain fatty acid transmembrane transporter activity; long-chain fatty acid-CoA ligase activity; and very long-chain fatty acid-CoA ligase activity. Acts upstream of or within fatty acid transport; long-chain fatty acid metabolic process; and very long-chain fatty acid catabolic process. Located in endoplasmic reticulum; peroxisome; and plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; genitourinary system; liver; lung; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human SLC27A2 (solute carrier family 27 member 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
