Gene ID: 80308, updated on 5-Mar-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: FAD1; FADS; PP591; LSMFLAD

Summary

This gene encodes the enzyme that catalyzes adenylation of flavin mononucleotide (FMN) to form flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) coenzyme. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been observed. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
