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.

Molecules

Palmitoylcarnitine
Palmitoyl CoA

Pathway

Human forms

There are four different forms of CPT in humans:

CPT1A – associated with Carnitine palmitoyltransferase I deficiency
CPT1B
CPT1C
CPT2 – associated with carnitine palmitoyltransferase II deficiency
