Summary
Predicted to enable long-chain fatty acid-CoA ligase activity. Predicted to be involved in long-chain fatty acid metabolic process; long-chain fatty-acyl-CoA metabolic process; and neuron differentiation. Located in lipid droplet. Is expressed in several structures, including gonadal sheath cell; hypodermis; neurons; pharynx; and somatic nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in asthma; breast cancer; intellectual disability; non-syndromic X-linked intellectual disability 63; and prostate cancer. Orthologous to human ACSL3 (acyl-CoA synthetase long chain family member 3) and ACSL4 (acyl-CoA synthetase long chain family member 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]
