Gene name

ACSS2 (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

ACAS2, AceCS, ACS, ACSA, dJ1161H23.1

Description

Acyl-CoA synthetase short-chain family member 2 (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

This gene encodes a cytosolic enzyme that catalyzes the activation of acetate for use in lipid synthesis and energy generation. The protein acts as a monomer and produces acetyl-CoA from acetate in a reaction that requires ATP. Expression of this gene is regulated by sterol regulatory element-binding proteins, transcription factors that activate genes required for the synthesis of cholesterol and unsaturated fatty acids. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2009]
