Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat FA2H Polyclonal Antibody

FA2H (Fatty Acid 2-Hydroxylase) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with FA2H include Spastic Paraplegia 35, Autosomal Recessive and Spastic Paraplegia 35. Among its related pathways are fatty acid alpha-oxidation III and Metabolism. GO annotations related to this gene include oxidoreductase activity and heme binding.This gene encodes a protein that catalyzes the synthesis of 2-hydroxysphingolipids, a subset of sphingolipids that contain 2-hydroxy fatty acids. Sphingolipids play roles in many cellular processes and their structural diversity arises from modification of the hydrophobic ceramide moiety, such as by 2-hydroxylation of the N-acyl chain, and the existence of many different head groups. Mutations in this gene have been associated with leukodystrophy dysmyelinating with spastic paraparesis with or without dystonia.
