Protein Coding Gene : Acss2 acyl-CoA synthetase short-chain family member 2

Primary Identifier  MGI:1890410 Organism  mouse, laboratory
Chromosome  2 NCBI Gene Number  60525
Mgi Type  protein coding gene
description  FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)

Enables CoA-ligase activity; chromatin binding activity; and transcription coactivator activity. Involved in long-term memory. Acts upstream of or within acetyl-CoA biosynthetic process. Located in cytosol and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; liver; nervous system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in orofacial cleft. Orthologous to human ACSS2 (acyl-CoA synthetase short chain family member 2).
PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele are resistant to acute renal injury and inflammation in an LPS-induced sepsis model and show reduced IL1beta production and decreased NLRP3 activation-mediated pyroptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells in response to LPS challenge.
