Background
This gene encodes a mitochondrial acetyl-CoA synthetase enzyme. A similar protein in mice plays an important role in the tricarboxylic acid cycle by catalyzing the conversion of acetate to acetyl CoA. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2011],catalytic activity:ATP + acetate + CoA = AMP + diphosphate + acetyl-CoA.,function:Converts acetate to acetyl-CoA so that it can be used for oxidation through the tricarboxylic cycle to produce ATP and CO(2).,sequence caution:Sequencing errors.,similarity:Belongs to the ATP-dependent AMP-binding enzyme family.,
