Identification
NameLong-chain-fatty-acid--CoA ligase 4
Synonyms
  • Fatty acid activator 4
  • Long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase 4
Gene NameFAA4
Enzyme Class
Biological Properties
General FunctionInvolved in catalytic activity
Specific FunctionEsterification, concomitant with transport, of exogenous long-chain fatty acids into metabolically active CoA thioesters for subsequent degradation or incorporation into phospholipids. Contributes, with FAA1, to the activation of imported myristate
