Elongation of very long chain fatty acid-like (ELOVL) proteins are members of the ELO family of proteins, which play an important role in tissue-specific biosynthesis of very long chain fatty acids and sphingolipids. Fatty acids are important in many biological processes including fetal growth and development, brain development, inflammatory response, and retinal function. The ELOVL proteins function as elongases and catalyze fatty acid elongation reduction and localize to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Elongation of very long chain fatty acids protein 7 (ELOVL7) is involved in lipogenesis and its expression is regulated by PPARå. ELOVL7 is a 281 amino acid protein and the gene encoding ELOVL7 maps to chromosome 5q12.1.
