ACSL6 - acyl-CoA synthetase long chain family member 6 Gene
Also Known as ACS2; FACL6; LACS2; LACS5; LACS 6
Species: Homo sapiens
About ACSL6
This gene has 34 transcripts (splice variants), 472 orthologues, 12 paralogues and is associated with 73 phenotypes. Biased expression in brain (RPKM 19.2), testis (RPKM 8.4) and 5 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the formation of acyl-CoA from fatty acids, ATP, and CoA, using magnesium as a cofactor. The encoded protein plays a major role in fatty acid metabolism in the brain. Translocations with the ETV6 gene are causes of myelodysplastic syndrome with basophilia, acute myelogenous leukemia with eosinophilia, and acute eosinophilic leukemia. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Apr 2011]
