FAA2 [YER015W]

Long-chain-fatty-acid--CoA ligase 2; Medium chain fatty acyl-CoA synthetase; activates imported fatty acids; accepts a wide range of fatty acid chain lengths with a preference for medium chains, C9:0-C13:0; localized to the peroxisome; comparative analysis suggests that a mitochondrially targeted form may result from translation starting at a non-canonical codon upstream of the annotated start codon
