acyl-CoA synthetase bubblegum family member 1

Symbol

ACSBG1 (may also be known as: None)

Organism

Human

Description

The protein encoded by this gene possesses long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase activity. It is thought to play a central role in brain very long-chain fatty acids metabolism and myelinogenesis. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
