Summary: Predicted to enable fatty acid elongase activity. Predicted to be involved in fatty acid biosynthetic process and sphingolipid biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Orthologous to human ELOVL3 (ELOVL fatty acid elongase 3) and ELOVL6 (ELOVL fatty acid elongase 6).
