The function of ENSG00000143554 (SLC27A3, solute carrier family 27 member 3) is as follows. Mainly functions as an acyl-CoA ligase catalyzing the ATP- dependent formation of fatty acyl-CoA using LCFA and very-long-chain fatty acids (VLCFA) as substrates (PubMed:23936004). Can mediate the levels of long-chain fatty acids (LCFA) in the cell by facilitating their transport across membranes (By similarity). .
