Alternative Names:
ACS1, LACS, FACL1, FACL2, LACS1, LACS2
ACSL1 encodes an isozyme of the long-chain fatty-acid-coenzyme A ligase family. Although differing in substrate specificity, subcellular localization, and tissue distribution, all isozymes of this family convert free long-chain fatty acids into fatty acyl-CoA esters, and thereby play a key role in lipid biosynthesis and fatty acid degradation.The protein encoded by this gene is an isozyme of the long-chain fatty-acid-coenzyme A ligase family.
