Summary: Enables carnitine O-palmitoyltransferase activity and identical protein binding activity. Involved in several processes, including fatty acid metabolic process; liver regeneration; and response to tetrachloromethane. Located in mitochondrial outer membrane. Biomarker of alcoholic hepatitis; end stage renal disease; metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis; obesity; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in carnitine palmitoyltransferase I deficiency and lipid metabolism disorder. Orthologous to human CPT1A (carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A).

e found that CPT1AM-expressing rBA have increased FAO, lipolysis, UCP1 protein levels and mitochondrial activity. Additionally, enhanced FAO reduced the palmitate-induced increase in triglyceride content and the expression of obese and inflammatory markers. Thus, CPT1AM-expressing rBA had enhanced fat-burning capacity and improved lipid-induced derangements.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
