Gene information for CPT2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID1376
Official gene symbolCPT2
Full namecarnitine palmitoyltransferase 2
Aliases,CPT1,CPTASE,
Gene summaryThe 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]
