LIPT2

Gene Information
  • Official Symbol: LIPT2
  • Official Name: lipoyl(octanoyl) transferase 2
  • Aliases and Previous Symbols: N/A
  • Entrez ID: 387787
  • UniProt: A6NK58
  • Interactions: BioGRID
  • PubMed articles: Open PubMed
  • OMIM: Open OMIM
Function Summary
  • Entrez Summary: This gene encodes a mitochondrial protein that catalyzes the transfer of octanoic acid to lipoate-dependent enzymes such as octanoyl-ACP. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2016].
  • UniProt Summary: Catalyzes the transfer of endogenously produced octanoic acid from octanoyl-acyl-carrier-protein onto the lipoyl domains of lipoate-dependent enzymes, which catalyze essential redox reactions (PubMed:28757203). Lipoyl-ACP can also act as a substrate although octanoyl-ACP is likely to be the physiological substrate (By similarity). {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28757203}.
