Target Details for MECR

Target: MECR (Mitochondrial Trans-2-Enoyl-CoA Reductase (MECR))

Alternative Name: MECR

Background:

Synonyms: Zinc finger protein 42 homolog, Zfp-42, Reduced expression protein 1, REX-1, hREX-1, Zinc finger protein 754, ZFP42, REX1, ZNF754

Tissue Specificity: Expressed in kidney, epidermal keratinocytes, prostate epithelial cells, bronchial and small airway lung epithelial cells (at protein level). Expressed in malignant kidney and several carcinoma cell lines (at protein level). Expressed in embryonic stem cells, kidney, epidermal keratinocytes, prostate epithelial cells, bronchial and small airway lung epithelial cells. Expressed in embryonal carcinomas, seminomas, malignant kidney and several carcinoma cell lines.

Background: Trans-2-enoyl-CoA reductase, mitochondrial is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the MECR gene. The protein encoded by this gene is an oxidoreductase that catalyzes the last step in mitochondrial fatty acid synthesis. Defects in this gene are a cause of childhood-onset dystonia and optic atrophy.

Molecular Weight: 38 kDa
