Summary
Predicted to enable carnitine O-palmitoyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in carnitine metabolic process and fatty acid metabolic process. Predicted to be located in mitochondrial outer membrane. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Predicted to be active in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including body wall musculature; intestine; pharynx; rectal gland cell; and vulval muscle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in carnitine palmitoyltransferase I deficiency; hereditary spastic paraplegia 73; and lipid metabolism disorder. Orthologous to several human genes including CPT1A (carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A) and CPT1B (carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1B). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
