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 that specifically elongates C24:0 and C26:0 acyl-CoAs. May participate to the production of saturated and monounsaturated VLCFAs of different chain lengths that are involved in multiple biological processes as precursors of membrane lipids and lipid mediators. May play a critical role in early brain and skin development. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20937905}. |
Subcellular Location | Endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16036915, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20937905}; Multi- pass membrane protein {ECO:0000255}. |
Tissue Specificity | Expressed in the retina and at much lower level in the brain. Ubiquitous, highest expression in thymus, followed by testis, small intestine, ovary, and prostate. Little or no expression in heart, lung, liver, or leukocates. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20937905}. |
