Accession
GO:0015911
Name
long-chain fatty acid import across plasma membrane
Ontology
biological_process
Synonyms
plasma membrane long-chain fatty acid transport
Alternate IDs
None
Definition
The directed movement of a long-chain fatty acid from outside of a cell, across the plasma membrane and into the cytosol. A long-chain fatty acid has an aliphatic tail containing 13 to 22 carbons. Source: GOC:ai
Comment
While there is not universal consensus on the lengths of short-, medium-, long- and very-long-chain fatty acids, the GO uses the definitions in ChEBI (see CHEBI:26666, CHEBI:59554, CHEBI:15904 and CHEBI:27283).
