Summary
Predicted to enable acid-thiol ligase activity and fatty-acyl-CoA synthase activity. Predicted to be involved in acyl-CoA metabolic process and fatty acid biosynthetic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within fatty acid metabolic process. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; cranium; genitourinary system; and integumental system. Orthologous to several human genes including ACSM2B (acyl-CoA synthetase medium chain family member 2B). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

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.
