Also known as BBH, BBOX, G-BBH, gamma-BBH, gamma-butyrobetaine hydroxylase 1
protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens
This gene encodes gamma butyrobetaine hydroxylase which catalyzes the formation of L-carnitine from gamma-butyrobetaine, the last step in the L-carnitine biosynthetic pathway. Carnitine is essential for the transport of activated fatty acids across the mitochondrial membrane during mitochondrial beta-oxidation. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].
