SLC27A6, Official Symbol SLC27A6provided by HGNC Official Full Name solute carrier family 27 member 6provided by HGNC Primary source HGNC:HGNC:11000 See related Ensembl:ENSG00000113396 MIM:604196; AllianceGenome:HGNC:11000 Gene type protein coding RefSeq status REVIEWED Organism Homo sapiens Lineage Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo Also known as FATP6; ACSVL2; FACVL2; VLCS-H1 Summary This gene encodes a member of the fatty acid transport protein family (FATP). FATPs are involved in the uptake of long-chain fatty acids and have unique expression patterns. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.
