Acylcarnitine is more stable and less reactive than acyl-CoA and is an ideal form for storing activated acyl groups that can be transferred to CoA and provide a direct source of energy via FAO

Discussion The role of L-carnitine in weight reduction in humans and mouse models has been reported in a number of studies
Alternatively, acetylcarnitine, produced in excess in mitochondria by CrAT, is transported into cytosol by CACT and enters the nucleus, where a nuclear CrAT converts the acetylcarnitine to acetyl-CoA 67 , and it becomes a source of acetyl groups for histone acetylation
