About Acss2

Summary

Enables acetate-CoA Ligase activity. Involved in acetate biosynthetic process and propionate biosynthetic process. Located in cytoplasm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in orofacial cleft. Orthologous to human ACSS2 (acyl-CoA synthetase short chain family member 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
