The three known classes of carnitine acyltransferases differ in their acyl group specificity. Carnitine acetyltransferase has a substrate preference for short chain acyl-CoAs whereas carnitine palmityltransferases and carnitine palmityltransferases show preference for long chain acyl-CoAs.They are found in the mitochondrial matrix. Carnitine acetyltransferases are localized in both the outer membrane and the inner membrane. | The three known classes of carnitine acyltransferases differ in their acyl group specificity.
