About Acat2

Chromosome 17: 13,161,777-13,179,634 reverse strand.GRCm39:CM001010.3

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 212 orthologues, 6 paralogues and is associated with 12 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in CNS E11.5 (RPKM 65.2), liver adult (RPKM 62.8) and 28 other tissues.

Summary

Predicted to enable acetyl-CoA C-acetyltransferase activity. Involved in positive regulation of intestinal Cholesterol absorption. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; integumental system; nervous system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in coronary artery disease. Orthologous to human ACAT2 (acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
