| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables acetyl-CoA C-acetyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in isoleucine catabolic process; ketone body catabolic process; and nucleoside phosphate metabolic process. Located in mitochondrial inner membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; future brain; heart; liver; and metanephros. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in beta-ketothiolase deficiency and carbohydrate metabolic disorder. Orthologous to human ACAT1 (acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase 1). |
