Carnitine palmitoyltransferase II deficiency, sometimes shortened to CPT-II or CPT2, is an autosomal recessively inherited genetic metabolic disorder characterized by an enzymatic defect that prevents long-chain fatty acids from being transported into the mitochondria for utilization as an energy source. The disorder presents in one of three ...
Carnitine Palmitoyl Transferase I & II ( CPT I deficiency & CPT II deficiency) 2,4 Dienoyl-CoA Reductase Deficiency; Electron Transfer Flavoprotein (ETF) Dehydrogenase Deficiency (GA-II/MADD) 3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA lyase deficiency (HMG deficiency) Very long-chain acyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency (VLCAD deficiency)
Carnitine palmitoyltransferase I deficiency has an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance. Mutations in the CPT1A gene cause carnitine palmitoyltransferase I deficiency by producing a defective version of an enzyme called carnitine palmitoyltransferase I. Without this enzyme, long-chain fatty acids from food and fats stored in the body ...
CPT2 together with carnitine palmitoyltransferase I oxidizes long-chain fatty acids in the mitochondria. Defects in this gene are associated with mitochondrial long-chain fatty-acid (LCFA) oxidation disorders and carnitine palmitoyltransferase II deficiency.

The carnitine palmitoyltransferase system is an essential step in the beta-oxidation of long chain fatty acids. This transfer system is necessary because, while fatty acids are activated (in the form of a thioester linkage to coenzyme A) on the outer mitochondrial membrane, the activated fatty acids must be oxidized within the mitochondrial ...
Carnitine O-palmitoyltransferase (also called carnitine palmitoyltransferase) is a mitochondrial transferase enzyme (EC 2.3.1.21) involved in the metabolism of palmitoylcarnitine into palmitoyl-CoA. A related transferase is carnitine acyltransferase .
