About Slc27a3

Summary

Enables fatty-acyl-CoA synthase activity. Predicted to be involved in long-chain fatty acid metabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within acyl-CoA metabolic process. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; sensory organ; and skeleton. Orthologous to human SLC27A3 (solute carrier family 27 member 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
