Gene

Scp2

Species
Rattus norvegicus
Symbol
Scp2
Name
sterol carrier protein 2
Synonyms
  • acetyl-CoA C-myristoyltransferase
  • non-specific lipid-transfer protein
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables several functions, including C-acyltransferase activity; lipid transfer activity; and propionyl-CoA C2-trimethyltridecanoyltransferase activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to cholesterol; monocarboxylic acid metabolic process; and positive regulation of cholesterol biosynthetic process. Located in peroxisomal matrix. Orthologous to human SCP2 (sterol carrier protein 2).
RGD Description
