About Acsm2

Summary

Predicted to enable acid-thiol Ligase activity and fatty-acyl-CoA synthase activity. Predicted to be involved in fatty acid biosynthetic process and medium-chain fatty-acyl-CoA metabolic process. Predicted to be located in mitochondrion. Predicted to be active in mitochondrial matrix. Orthologous to several human genes including ACSM2A (acyl-CoA synthetase medium chain family member 2A).
