Carnitine acetyltransferase is a mitochondrial matrix enzyme that catalyzes the interconversion of Acetyl-CoA and Acetylcarnitine (HY-126358). Carnitine acetyltransferase functions as a positive regulator of total body glucose tolerance and muscle activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase. Carnitine acetyltransferase is responsible for mitochondrial acetyl-CoA balance and regulation of fatty acid oxidation by utilizing short- and medium- chain fatty acids and their corresponding acylcarnitines as substrates. Carnitine acetyltransferase plays a crucial role in regulating glucose homeostasis. Carnitine acetyltransferase can be utilized in the research of aging, obesity, and diabetes[1][2].
