Homo sapiens

Also known as GPAT; GPAT1

Gene ID: 57678 | Gene type: protein coding

About GPAM

Cytogenetic location: 10q25.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 10:112,149,865-112,227,677 (from NCBI)

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 203 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Biased expression in fat (RPKM 277.9), liver (RPKM 26.0) and 1 other tissue.

Summary

This gene encodes a mitochondrial Enzyme which prefers saturated fatty acids as its substrate for the synthesis of glycerolipids. This metabolic pathway's first step is catalyzed by the encoded Enzyme. Two forms for this Enzyme exist, one in the mitochondria and one in the endoplasmic reticulum. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]
