Source: NCBI Gene (ID 233549)
Symbol: Mogat2
Full name: monoacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 2
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: VALIDATED
Organism: Mus musculus
Also known as: DGAT2L5; MGAT2; Mgat1l
Summary: Enables 2-acylglycerol O-acyltransferase activity and acetyltransferase activity. Acts upstream of or within diacylglycerol biosynthetic process; intestinal absorption; and triglyceride biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in perinuclear endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including embryo endoderm; liver; metanephros; somite; and yolk sac endoderm. Orthologous to human MOGAT2 (monoacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 2).
