Protein name Carnitine O-palmitoyltransferase 2, mitochondrial (EC 2.3.1.21) (Carnitine palmitoyltransferase II) (CPT II)
Protein function Involved in the intramitochondrial synthesis of acylcarnitines from accumulated acyl-CoA metabolites (PubMed:20538056, PubMed:24780397). Reconverts acylcarnitines back into the respective acyl-CoA esters that can then undergo beta-oxidation, an
