ACSL1 acyl-CoA synthetase long chain family member 1 Gene ID: 2180, updated on21-Dec-2019Also known as: ACS1; LACS; FACL1; FACL2; LACS1; LACS2.SummaryThe protein encoded by this gene is an isozyme of the long-chain fatty-acid-coenzyme A ligase family. Although differing in substrate specificity, subcellular localization, and tissue distribution, all isozymes of this family convert free long-chain fatty acids into fatty acyl-CoA esters, and thereby play a key role in lipid biosynthesis and fatty acid degradation. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. provided by RefSeq, Nov 2013.
