Identification
NameLong-chain-fatty-acid--CoA ligase 2
Synonyms
  • Fatty acid activator 2
  • Long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase 2
Gene NameFAA2
Enzyme Class
Biological Properties
General FunctionInvolved in catalytic activity
Specific FunctionEsterification, concomitant with transport, of endogenous long-chain fatty acids into metabolically active CoA thioesters for subsequent degradation or incorporation into phospholipids. Preferentially acts on C9:0-C13:0 fatty acids although C7:0-C17:0 fatty acids are tolerated
Cellular LocationCytoplasm. Mitochondrion.
