About ACSL4

Cytogenetic location: Xq23 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): X:109,641,335-109,733,257 (from NCBI)

This gene has 18 transcripts (splice variants), 271 orthologues, 12 paralogues and is associated with 4 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in adrenal (RPKM 24.5), appendix (RPKM 24.0) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is an isozyme of the long-chain fatty-acid-coenzyme A ligase family. Although differing in substrate specificity, subcellular localization, and tissue distribution, all isozymes of this family convert free long-chain fatty acids into fatty acyl-CoA esters, and thereby play a key role in lipid biosynthesis and fatty acid degradation. This isozyme preferentially utilizes arachidonate as substrate. The absence of this Enzyme may contribute to the cognitive disability or Alport syndrome. Alternative splicing of this gene generates multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]
