Identification
HMDB Protein ID CDBP00589
Secondary Accession Numbers Not Available
Name Long-chain-fatty-acid--CoA ligase 6
Description Not Available
Synonyms
  1. LACS 6
  2. Long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase 6
Gene Name ACSL6
Protein Type Enzyme
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in catalytic activity
Specific Function Activation of long-chain fatty acids for both synthesis of cellular lipids, and degradation via beta-oxidation. Plays an important role in fatty acid metabolism in brain and the acyl-CoAs produced may be utilized exclusively for the synthesis of the brain lipid.
