About ACOT8

Cytogenetic location: 20q13.12 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 20:45,841,721-45,857,392 (from NCBI)

This gene has 13 transcripts (splice variants) and 202 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in adrenal (RPKM 10.6), brain (RPKM 10.3) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a peroxisomal thioesterase that appears to be involved more in the oxidation of fatty acids rather than in their formation. The encoded protein can bind to the human immunodeficiency virus-1 protein Nef, and mediate Nef-induced down-regulation of CD4 in T-cells. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2010]
