About HMGCS2

Cytogenetic location: 1p12 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:119,747,996-119,768,932 (from NCBI)

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 127 orthologues, 1 paralogue and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Biased expression in liver (RPKM 471.6), colon (RPKM 127.8) and 5 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the HMG-CoA synthase family. It is a mitochondrial enzyme that catalyzes the first reaction of ketogenesis, a metabolic pathway that provides lipid-derived energy for various organs during times of carbohydrate deprivation, such as fasting. Mutations in this gene are associated with HMG-CoA synthase deficiency. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]
