(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID79143
Official gene symbolMBOAT7
Full namemembrane bound O-acyltransferase domain containing 7
Aliases,BB1,FLJ41296,LENG4,LPIAT,LRC4,MBOA7,OACT7,hMBOA-7,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a member of the membrane-bound O-acyltransferases family of integral membrane proteins that have acyltransferase activity. The encoded protein is a lysophosphatidylinositol acyltransferase that has specificity for arachidonoyl-CoA as an acyl donor. This protein is involved in the reacylation of phospholipids as part of the phospholipid remodeling pathway known as the Land cycle. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
