Gene: ACSS1

Alternate names for this Gene: ACAS2L|ACECS1|AceCS2L

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a mitochondrial acetyl-CoA synthetase enzyme. A similar protein in mice plays an important role in the tricarboxylic acid cycle by catalyzing the conversion of acetate to acetyl CoA. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 20

Location in Chromosome : 20p11.21

Description of this Gene: acyl-CoA synthetase short chain family member 1

Type of Gene: protein-coding
