About ELOVL3

Cytogenetic location: 10q24.32 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 10:102,224,767-102,229,589 (from NCBI)

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 264 orthologues and 6 paralogues. Biased expression in fat (RPKM 1.4), skin (RPKM 0.7) and 8 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a protein that belongs to the GNS1/SUR4 family. Members of this family play a role in elongation of long chain fatty acids to provide precursors for synthesis of sphingolipids and ceramides. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]
