Description
Predicted to have fatty acid elongase activity. Involved in very long-chain fatty acid biosynthetic process. Predicted to localize to integral component of endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in corneal dystrophy and spinocerebellar ataxia type 34. Is expressed in several structures, including liver; nervous system; neural rod; pleuroperitoneal region; and trigeminal placode. Orthologous to human ELOVL4 (ELOVL fatty acid elongase 4).
