Gene information for OXCT1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID5019
Official gene symbolOXCT1
Full name3-oxoacid CoA transferase 1
Aliases,OXCT,SCOT,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a member of the 3-oxoacid CoA-transferase gene family. The encoded protein is a homodimeric mitochondrial matrix enzyme that plays a central role in extrahepatic ketone body catabolism by catalyzing the reversible transfer of coenzyme A from succinyl-CoA to acetoacetate. Mutations in this gene are associated with succinyl CoA:3-oxoacid CoA transferase deficiency. [provided by RefSeq]
