Protein Name:
Fatty acyl-CoA reductase 1
|
UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: Q922J9 (Q922J9)
Gene Name:
Far1
Organism: Mus musculus (Mouse)
Function: Catalyzes the reduction of saturated and unsaturated C16 or C18 fatty acyl-CoA to fatty alcohols (PubMed:15220348, PubMed:15220349). It plays an essential role in the production of ether lipids/plasmalogens which synthesis requires fatty alcohols (By similarity). In parallel, it is also required for wax monoesters production since fatty alcohols also constitute a substrate for their synthesis (PubMed:15220349)
