Gene
MOGAT2
Protein
2-acylglycerol O-acyltransferase 2
Organism
Homo sapiens
Length
334 amino acids
Function
Catalyzes the formation of diacylglycerol from 2-monoacylglycerol and fatty acyl-CoA. Has a preference toward monoacylglycerols containing unsaturated fatty acids in an order of C18:3 > C18:2 > C18:1 > C18:0. Plays a central role in absorption of dietary fat in the small intestine by catalyzing the resynthesis of triacylglycerol in enterocytes. May play a role in diet-induced obesity.
Similarity
Belongs to the diacylglycerol acyltransferase family.
