glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase 3
Alias
AGPAT 10 | AGPAT10 | AGPAT8 | AGPAT9 | HMFN0839 | LPAAT-theta | MAG1
This gene encodes a member of the lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase protein family. The encoded protein is an enzyme which catalyzes the conversion of glycerol-3-phosphate to lysophosphatidic acid in the synthesis of triacylglycerol. Multiple alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2012].
