Function |
May play a role in the biosynthesis of lipoic acid as well as longer chain fatty acids required for optimal mitochondrial function. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15668256}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Mitochondrion {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15668256}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Widely expressed. Higher expression in heart, skeletal muscle, liver and kidney which contain high levels of active mitochondria. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15668256}.
