ncbi summary :
This gene encodes a member of a family of fatty acid transport proteins, which are involved in translocation of long-chain fatty acids cross the plasma membrane. This protein is expressed at high levels on the apical side of mature enterocytes in the small intestine, and appears to be the principal fatty acid transporter in enterocytes. Clinical studies suggest this gene as a candidate gene for the insulin resistance syndrome. Mutations in this gene have been associated with ichthyosis prematurity syndrome.

uniprot summary :
SLC27A4: Involved in translocation of long-chain fatty acids (LFCA) across the plasma membrane. Appears to be the principal fatty acid transporter in small intestinal enterocytes. Plays a role in the formation of the epidermal barrier. Required for fat absorption in early embryogenesis. Has acyl-CoA ligase activity for long-chain and very-long-chain fatty acids. Defects in SLC27A4 are the cause of ichthyosis prematurity syndrome (IPS). A keratinization disorder characterized by complications in the second trimester of pregnancy resulting from polyhydramnion, with premature birth of a child with thick caseous desquamating epidermis, respiratory complications and transient eosinophilia. After recovery during the first months of life, the symptoms are relatively benign and the patients suffer from a lifelong non-scaly ichthyosis with atopic manifestations. Belongs to the ATP-dependent AMP-binding enzyme family. Protein type: Transporter, SLC family; Membrane protein, integral; Ligase; EC 6.2.1.-; Transporter; Membrane protein, multi-pass. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 9q34.11. Cellular Component: endoplasmic reticulum membrane; microvillus; membrane; brush border membrane; plasma membrane; integral to membrane. Molecular Function: fatty acid transporter activity; nucleotide binding; very-long-chain-fatty-acid-CoA ligase activity; long-chain-fatty-acid-CoA ligase activity. Biological Process: skin development; long-chain fatty acid transport; very-long-chain fatty acid catabolic process; transport; long-chain fatty acid metabolic process; lipid metabolic process; medium-chain fatty acid transport; transmembrane transport; fatty acid transport; response to nutrient. Disease: Ichthyosis Prematurity Syndrome
