Description

monoacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 2

Gene Summary

Enables 2-acylglycerol O-acyltransferase activity and acetyltransferase activity. Involved in triglyceride biosynthetic process. Acts upstream of or within diacylglycerol biosynthetic process and intestinal absorption. Predicted to be located in perinuclear endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; embryo endoderm; liver; metanephros; and yolk sac. Orthologous to human MOGAT2 (monoacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jun 2025]
