FASN - fatty acid synthase Gene

Also Known as FAS; OA-519; SDR27X1

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 2194

About FASN

Cytogenetic location: 17q25.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 17:82,078,338-82,098,236 (from NCBI)

This gene has 13 transcripts (splice variants), 195 orthologues, 1 paralogue and is associated with 1 phenotype. Biased expression in fat (RPKM 227.7), prostate (RPKM 28.4) and 3 other tissues.

Summary

The enzyme encoded by this gene is a multifunctional protein. Its main function is to catalyze the synthesis of palmitate from acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA, in the presence of NADPH, into long-chain saturated fatty acids. In some Cancer cell lines, this protein has been found to be fused with estrogen receptor-alpha (ER-alpha), in which the N-terminus of FAS is fused in-frame with the C-terminus of ER-alpha.
