  <name>Stearoylcarnitine</name>
  <description>Stearoylcarnitine is found in significantly greater amounts of lpatients with carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT) II deficiency when compared to controls. ( PubMed ID 15653102 ).
The carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT; EC 2.3.1.21) enzyme system, in conjunction with acyl-CoA synthetase and carnitine/acylcarnitine translocase (212138), provides the mechanism whereby long-chain fatty acids are transferred from the cytosol to the mitochondrial matrix to undergo beta-oxidation. (OMIM 600650 ) [HMDB]</description>
