ACSL1 blocking peptide
ACSL1 Blocking Peptide (C-term)
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is an isozyme of the long-chain fatty-acid-coenzyme A ligase family. Although differing in substrate specificity, subcellular localization, and tissue distribution, all isozymes of this family convert free long-chain fatty acids into fatty acyl-CoA esters, and thereby play a key role in lipid biosynthesis and fatty acid degradation. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2013]
Uniprot Description
ACSL1: Activation of long-chain fatty acids for both synthesis of cellular lipids, and degradation via beta-oxidation. Preferentially uses palmitoleate, oleate and linoleate. Highly expressed in liver, heart, skeletal muscle, kidney and erythroid cells, and to a lesser extent in brain, lung, placenta and pancreas. Belongs to the ATP-dependent AMP-binding enzyme family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 4q35.1
Cellular Component: endoplasmic reticulum membrane; membrane; mitochondrial outer membrane; mitochondrion
Molecular Function: long-chain-fatty-acid-CoA ligase activity
Biological Process: linoleic acid metabolic process; lipid biosynthetic process; long-chain fatty acid metabolic process

Product Notes
The ACSL1 acsl1 (Catalog #AAA9228923) is a Blocking Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "ACSL1, Blocking Peptide" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
