基因 CPT1A 与疾病

CPT1A基因编码肉碱棕榈酰转移酶1,存在于肝脏中,该酶在脂肪酸代谢中具有重要作用。该酶将肉毒碱结合至长链脂肪酸,使其能进入线粒体膜,进而代谢为能量。

已发现20多种突变,导致肉碱棕榈酰转移酶1活性降低甚至失活,脂肪酸无法正常代谢,导致低血糖和脂肪酸代谢产物缺乏,以及脂肪酸累积,损害肝脏、心脏、大脑等组织器官

基因摘要 The mitochondrial oxidation of long-chain fatty acids is initiated by the sequential action of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I (which is located in the outer membrane and is detergent-labile) and carnitine palmitoyltransferase II (which is located in the inner membrane and is detergent-stable), together with a carnitine-acylcarnitine translocase. CPT I is the key enzyme in the carnitine-dependent transport across the mitochondrial inner membrane and its deficiency results in a decreased rate of fatty acid beta-oxidation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].
