Entrez Gene summary for ACSS2 Gene:

This gene encodes a cytosolic enzyme that catalyzes the activation of acetate for use in lipid synthesis and

energy generation. The protein acts as a monomer and produces acetyl-CoA from acetate in a reaction that requires

ATP. Expression of this gene is regulated by sterol regulatory element-binding proteins, transcription factors

that activate genes required for the synthesis of cholesterol and unsaturated fatty acids. Alternative splicing

results in multiple transcript variants. (provided by RefSeq, Jul 2009)

GeneCards Summary for ACSS2 Gene:

ACSS2 (acyl-CoA synthetase short-chain family member 2) is a protein-coding gene. Diseases associated with ACSS2 include alcoholic hepatitis, and hypercalcemia. GO annotations related to this gene include acetate-CoA ligase activity and AMP binding. An important paralog of this gene is C10orf129.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: ACSA_HUMAN, Q9NR19

Function: Activates acetate so that it can be used for lipid synthesis or for energy generation
