Predicted to enable long-chain fatty acid-CoA ligase activity. Predicted to be involved in long-chain fatty acid metabolic process. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum and membrane. Expressed in head. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in acute myeloid leukemia; congenital diarrhea; and obesity. Is an ortholog of human ACSL1 (acyl-CoA synthetase long chain family member 1); ACSL5 (acyl-CoA synthetase long chain family member 5); and ACSL6 (acyl-CoA synthetase long chain family member 6).
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.
