Function | Catalyzes the first and rate-limiting reaction of the four that constitute the long-chain fatty acids elongation cycle. This endoplasmic reticulum-bound enzymatic process, allows the addition of 2 carbons to the chain of long- and very long-chain fatty acids/VLCFAs per cycle. Condensing enzyme with higher activity toward C18 acyl-CoAs, especially C18:3(n-3) acyl-CoAs and C18:3(n-6)-CoAs. Also active toward C20:4-, C18:0-, C18:1-, C18:2- and C16:0-CoAs, and weakly toward C20:0-CoA. Little or no activity toward C22:0-, C24:0-, or C26:0-CoAs. May participate to the production of saturated and polyunsaturated VLCFAs of different chain lengths that are involved in multiple biological processes as precursors of membrane lipids and lipid mediators. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19826053, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20937905, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21959040}. |
Subcellular Location | Endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20937905}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000255}. |
Tissue Specificity | Expressed in most tissues except heart and skeletal muscle. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20937905}. |
