About HSD17B4

Cytogenetic location: 5q23.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 5:119,452,497-119,542,332 (from NCBI)

This gene has 52 transcripts (splice variants), 197 orthologues, 25 paralogues and is associated with 5 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in liver (RPKM 94.4), thyroid (RPKM 88.0) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a bifunctional Enzyme that is involved in the peroxisomal beta-oxidation pathway for fatty acids. It also acts as a catalyst for the formation of 3-ketoacyl-CoA intermediates from both straight-chain and 2-methyl-branched-chain fatty acids. Defects in this gene that affect the peroxisomal fatty acid beta-oxidation activity are a cause of D-bifunctional protein deficiency (DBPD). An apparent pseudogene of this gene is present on chromosome 8. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene.
