Slc27a6 - solute carrier family 27 (fatty acid transporter), member 6

Enables very long-chain fatty acid-CoA ligase activity. Predicted to be involved in fatty acid transport. Predicted to act upstream of or within long-chain fatty acid metabolic process. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum. Is expressed in several structures, including genitourinary system; integumental system; nervous system; nose; and respiratory system. Orthologous to human SLC27A6 (solute carrier family 27 member 6). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
