Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 10005
Gene name Acyl-CoA thioesterase 8
Gene symbol ACOT8
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
HNAACTENAP1PTE-1PTE-2PTE1PTE2hACTE-IIIhTE
Chromosome 20
Chromosome location 20q13.12
Summary The protein encoded by this gene is a peroxisomal thioesterase that appears to be involved more in the oxidation of fatty acids rather than in their formation. The encoded protein can bind to the human immunodeficiency virus-1 protein Nef, and mediate Nef
