Protein Structure

UniProt Annotation

Function

Acyl-CoA synthetase involved in bile acid metabolism. Proposed to catalyze the first step in the conjugation of C24 bile acids (choloneates) to glycine and taurine before excretion into bile canaliculi by activating them to their CoA thioesters. Seems to activate secondary bile acids entering the liver from the enterohepatic circulation (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.

Subcellular Localization

Endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000250}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250}.

Disease Associations

Tissue Specificity

In liver expressed in a periportal distribution. {ECO:0000269PubMed:11980911}.
