| Full name | | carnitine palmitoyltransferase 2 |
| Aliases | | ,CPT1,CPTASE, |
| Gene summary | | 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] |
