Summary: Enables long-chain fatty acid transmembrane transporter activity and very long-chain fatty acid-CoA ligase activity. Involved in long-chain fatty acid import into cell; protein quality control for misfolded or incompletely synthesized proteins; and very long-chain fatty acid metabolic process. Located in several cellular components, including cytoplasmic side of plasma membrane; lipid droplet; and peroxisome. Orthologous to several human genes including SLC27A1 (solute carrier family 27 member 1); SLC27A2 (solute carrier family 27 member 2); and SLC27A3 (solute carrier family 27 member 3).

What's a GeneRIF?

Fatty Acyl Coenzyme A Synthetase Fat1p Regulates Vacuolar Structure and Stationary-Phase Lipophagy in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Title: Fatty Acyl Coenzyme A Synthetase Fat1p Regulates Vacuolar Structure and Stationary-Phase Lipophagy in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
C-terminal region of Fat1p, which interacts with ACSL, is positioned on inner face of plasma membrane. Topological orientation is consistent with mechanistic roles of Fat1p in coupled transport/activation of exogenous fatty acids by vectorial acylation.
