ACOT2 - acyl-CoA thioesterase 2 Gene
Also Known as MTE1; PTE2; CTE1A; PTE2A; CTE-IA; ZAP128
Species: Homo sapiens
About ACOT2
This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 436 orthologues and 4 paralogues. Broad expression in fat (RPKM 57.3), liver (RPKM 39.8) and 21 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the acyl-CoA thioesterase protein family, and is one of four acyl-CoA hydrolase genes located in a cluster on chromosome 14. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2012]
