Summary
Predicted to enable fatty acid elongase activity. Predicted to be involved in fatty acid biosynthetic process and sphingolipid biosynthetic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within fatty acid biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum. Predicted to be integral component of endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Is expressed in 4th ventricle lateral recess; choroid plexus; lateral ventricle choroid plexus; and skin. Orthologous to human ELOVL7 (ELOVL fatty acid elongase 7).

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.
