Predicted to enable 3-oxoacyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] synthase activity. Predicted to be involved in acyl-CoA metabolic process; medium-chain fatty acid biosynthetic process; and short-chain fatty acid biosynthetic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within fatty acid metabolic process. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in dorsal root ganglion; lung; nervous system; peripheral nervous system; and respiratory system. Orthologous to human OXSM (3-oxoacyl-ACP synthase, mitochondrial).
