Summary: Predicted to enable acetyl-CoA C-acetyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in fatty acid beta-oxidation. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including liver; lung; metanephros; nervous system; and neural retina. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in coronary artery disease. Orthologous to human ACAT2 (acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
