About Cpt1a

Summary

Enables carnitine O-palmitoyltransferase activity and palmitoleoyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including carnitine metabolic process; positive regulation of fatty acid beta-oxidation; and regulation of Insulin secretion. Predicted to act upstream of or within lipid metabolic process. Located in mitochondrial inner membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; integumental system; sensory organ; and urinary system. Used to study carnitine palmitoyltransferase I deficiency. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in carnitine palmitoyltransferase I deficiency and lipid metabolism disorder. Orthologous to human CPT1A (carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
