Protein names and data: CPT1A_HUMAN , Carnitine O-palmitoyltransferase 1, liver isoform; CPT1-L; 2.3.1.21 , Carnitine O-palmitoyltransferase I, liver isoform; CPT I; CPTI-L; Carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A Lenght: 773 a.a.
Mass: 88368 Da
fasta formatted sequence

Function: Catalyzes the transfer of the acyl group of long-chain fatty acid-CoA conjugates onto carnitine, an essential step for the mitochondrial uptake of long-chain fatty acids and their subsequent beta-oxidation in the mitochondrion. Plays an important role in triglyceride metabolism.
Catalytic activity: Palmitoyl-CoA + L-carnitine = CoA + L- palmitoylcarnitine.
Pathway: Lipid metabolism; fatty acid beta-oxidation.
Disease:
Cellular location: Mitochondrion outer membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
Tissue specificity: Strong expression in kidney and heart, and lower in liver and skeletal muscle.
