Chromosome | 3 | NCBI Gene Number | 66198 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable long-chain fatty acyl-CoA hydrolase activity. Involved in cardiolipin acyl-chain remodeling. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in anterior naris; epidermis; external naris; and oral epithelium. Orthologous to human THEM5 (thioesterase superfamily member 5). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knockout of this gene have abnormal mitochondria and display defects in mitochondrial respiration and in lipid metabolism. [provided by MGI curators] |
