Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 54677
Gene name Carnitine O-octanoyltransferase
Gene symbol CROT
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
COT
Chromosome 7
Chromosome location 7q21.12
Summary This gene encodes a member of the carnitine/choline acetyltransferase family. The encoded protein converts 4,8-dimethylnonanoyl-CoA to its corresponding carnitine ester. This transesterification occurs in the peroxisome and is necessary for transport of m
