Gene Ontology Information

Protein Name	Faa2p
Description	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
GO Terms: Biological Process	level 4: lipid metabolic process level 5: fatty acid metabolic process level 6: long-chain fatty acid metabolic process
GO Terms: Molecular Function	level 3: ligase activity level 4: nucleotide binding level 4: long-chain fatty acid-CoA ligase activity level 4: medium-chain fatty acid-CoA ligase activity level 4: very long-chain fatty acid-CoA ligase activity level 6: ATP binding
GO Terms: Cellular Component	level 3: membrane level 3: cytoplasm level 4: mitochondrion level 4: endoplasmic reticulum level 5: peroxisome level 6: peroxisomal membrane
