Summary
Predicted to enable 3alpha,7alpha,12alpha-trihydroxy-5beta-cholestanoyl-CoA 24-hydroxylase activity; anion binding activity; and palmitoyl-CoA oxidase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including fatty acid metabolic process; lipid homeostasis; and positive regulation of response to oxidative stress. Predicted to act upstream of or within fatty acid metabolic process. Predicted to be located in cytosol and intracellular membrane-bounded organelle. Predicted to be active in peroxisome. Is expressed in several structures, including heart ventricle; liver; metanephros; and trunk. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital bile acid synthesis defect 6. Orthologous to human ACOX2 (acyl-CoA oxidase 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
