Name | CPT1A (HGNC:2328) |
---|---|
Synonyms | CPT1 |
Function | Catalyzes the transfer of the acyl group of long-chain fatty acid-CoA conjugates onto carnitine, an essential step for the mitochondrial uptake of long-chain fatty acids and their subsequent beta-oxidation in the mitochondrion (PubMed:9691089, PubMed:11350182, PubMed:14517221, PubMed:16651524). Plays an important role in hepatic triglyceride metabolism (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Mitochondrion outer membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein |
Tissue Location | Strong expression in kidney and heart, and lower in liver and skeletal muscle |

Background
The mitochondrial oxidation of long-chain fatty acids isinitiated by the sequential action of carnitinepalmitoyltransferase I (which is located in the outer membrane andis detergent-labile) and carnitine palmitoyltransferase II (whichis located in the inner membrane and is detergent-stable), togetherwith a carnitine-acylcarnitine translocase. CPT I is the key enzymein the carnitine-dependent transport across the mitochondrial innermembrane and its deficiency results in a decreased rate of fattyacid beta-oxidation. Alternatively spliced transcript variantsencoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
