Summary: Predicted to enable acyl carnitine transmembrane transporter activity. Acts upstream of or within in utero embryonic development. Located in mitochondrial inner membrane. Is expressed in cerebral cortex ventricular layer and cortical plate. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in carnitine-acylcarnitine translocase deficiency. Orthologous to human SLC25A20 (solute carrier family 25 member 20). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

the 50-flanking region of the Cact gene contains a consensus sequence for ERRalpha. This sequence binds ERRa both in vivo and in vitro and is required for the activation of Cact expression by the PGC-1/ERR axis
Title: PGC-1β regulates mouse carnitine-acylcarnitine translocase through estrogen-related receptor α.
Data show that the upregulation of CACT by PPARalpha and PPARdelta may increase the import of acylcarnitine into the mitochondrial matrix during fasting.
Title: Mouse carnitine-acylcarnitine translocase (CACT) is transcriptionally regulated by PPARalpha and PPARdelta in liver cells.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
