The encoded enzyme is required for elongation of fatty acid chains in the mitochondria. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2009] Expression Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 3.3), thyroid (RPKM 1.6) and 25 other tissues See more Orthologs mouse all
