Gene Symbol ACLY
Synonyms ACL | ATPCL | CLATP
Gene Description ACLY, ATP citrate lyase, encodes an enzyme that converts citrate to acetyl-CoA, a key substrate for lipogenesis and histone acetylation, and oxaloacetate, which plays a role in glycolysis (PMID: 31873304, PMID: 30944476, PMID: 33679780).
