Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable fatty acid elongase activity. Predicted to be involved in fatty acid biosynthetic process and sphingolipid biosynthetic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within fatty acid biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum. Is expressed in 4th ventricle lateral recess; choroid plexus; lateral ventricle choroid plexus; and skin. Orthologous to human ELOVL7 (ELOVL fatty acid elongase 7).
