Gene: CPT2 (carnitine palmitoyltransferase 2) Homo sapiens

Symbol:

CPT2

Name:

carnitine palmitoyltransferase 2

Description:

The protein encoded by this gene is a nuclear protein which is transported to the mitochondrial inner membrane. Together with carnitine palmitoyltransferase I, the encoded protein oxidizes long-chain fatty acids in the mitochondria. Defects in this gene are associated with mitochondrial long-chain fatty-acid (LCFA) oxidation disorders. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
