| Definition | Homo sapiens fatty acid 2-hydroxylase (FA2H), mRNA. |
| Product | fatty acid 2-hydroxylase |
| Comment | Summary: This gene encodes a protein that catalyzes the synthesis of 2-hydroxysphingolipids, a subset of sphingolipids that contain 2-hydroxy fatty acids. Sphingolipids play roles in many cellular processes and their structural diversity arises from modification of the hydrophobic ceramide moiety, such as by 2-hydroxylation of the N-acyl chain, and the existence of many different head groups. Mutations in this gene have been associated with leukodystrophy dysmyelinating with spastic paraparesis with or without dystonia. COMPLETENESS: complete on the 3' end. |
