Source: NCBI Gene (ID 129642)
Symbol: MBOAT2
Full name: membrane bound O-acyltransferase domain containing 2
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: VALIDATED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: LPAAT; LPCAT; LPCAT4; LPEAT; LPLAT 2; LPLAT13; OACT2
Summary: Enables 1-acylglycerophosphocholine O-acyltransferase activity; 1-acylglycerophosphoethanolamine O-acyltransferase activity; and 1-acylglycerophosphoserine O-acyltransferase activity. Involved in phosphatidylcholine acyl-chain remodeling; phosphatidylethanolamine acyl-chain remodeling; and phosphatidylserine acyl-chain remodeling. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Predicted to be active in membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
