ELOVL5 - ELOVL fatty acid elongase 5 Gene
Also Known as HELO1; SCA38; dJ483K16.1
Species: Homo sapiens
About ELOVL5
This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 223 orthologues, 6 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Broad expression in fat (RPKM 113.4), prostate (RPKM 59.1) and 22 other tissues.
Summary
This gene belongs to the ELO family. It is highly expressed in the adrenal gland and testis, and encodes a multi-pass membrane protein that is localized in the endoplasmic reticulum. This protein is involved in the elongation of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids. Mutations in this gene have been associated with spinocerebellar ataxia-38 (SCA38). Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2014]
