Anti-ACOX2

The product of this gene belongs to the acyl-CoA oxidase family. It encodes the branched-chain acyl-CoA oxidase which is involved in the degradation of long branched fatty acids and bile acid intermediates in peroxisomes. Deficiency of this enzyme results in the accumulation of branched fatty acids and bile acid intermediates, and may lead to Zellweger syndrome, severe mental retardation, and death in children. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009], Protein function: Oxidizes the CoA esters of the bile acid intermediates di- and tri-hydroxycholestanoic acids (PubMed:27884763). Capable of oxidizing short as well as long chain 2-methyl branched fatty acids. [The UniProt Consortium] Recommended dilutions: WB 1:500-2000 ELISA 1:5000-20000. Cellular localization: Peroxisome .
