Summary: Enables propanoyl-CoA C-acyltransferase activity. Involved in several processes, including ascaroside biosynthetic process; dauer larval development; and olfactory learning. Located in peroxisome. Is expressed in body wall musculature; hypodermis; intestine; and neurons. Used to study obesity. Orthologous to human SCP2 (sterol carrier protein 2).
