About Slc27a2

Summary

Enables long-chain fatty acid-CoA Ligase activity and very long-chain fatty acid-CoA Ligase activity. Involved in long-chain fatty acid metabolic process. Located in endoplasmic reticulum and peroxisomal membrane. Is integral component of peroxisomal membrane. Orthologous to human SLC27A2 (solute carrier family 27 member 2).
