Record overview

LMPD IDLMP002155
Gene ID39
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Nameacetyl-CoA acetyltransferase 2
Gene SymbolACAT2
Synonyms-
Alternate namesacetyl-CoA acetyltransferase, cytosolic; acetoacetyl Coenzyme A thiolase; cytosolic acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase; acetyl-CoA transferase-like protein
Chromosome6
Map Location6q25.3
EC Number2.3.1.9
SummaryThe product of this gene is an enzyme involved in lipid metabolism, and it encodes cytosolic acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase. This gene shows complementary overlapping with the 3-prime region of the TCP1 gene in both mouse and human. These genes are encoded on opposite strands of DNA, as well as in opposite transcriptional orientation. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
