Gene: CPT1C
Alternate names for this Gene: CATL1|CPT1-B|CPT1P|CPTI-B|CPTIC|SPG73
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the carnitine/choline acetyltransferase family. The encoded protein regulates the beta-oxidation and transport of long-chain fatty acids into mitochondria, and may play a role in the regulation of feeding behavior and whole-body energy homeostasis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple protein isoforms have been observed for this gene.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 19
Location in Chromosome : 19q13.33
Description of this Gene: carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1C
Type of Gene: protein-coding
