Acsm5 - acyl-CoA synthetase medium-chain family member 5

Predicted to enable fatty acid ligase activity and fatty-acyl-CoA synthase activity. Predicted to be involved in acyl-CoA metabolic process and fatty acid biosynthetic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within fatty acid metabolic process. Predicted to be located in mitochondrion. Predicted to be active in mitochondrial matrix. Is expressed in axial skeleton; basisphenoid bone; and thoracic segment skeleton. Orthologous to human ACSM5 (acyl-CoA synthetase medium chain family member 5).
