HACD2, 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydratase 2

HACD2, 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydratase 2

• The protein encoded by this gene can catalyze the third step (dehydration) in the conversion of long chain fatty acids to very long chain fatty acids. The encoded protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum membrane. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]
