membrane bound O-acyltransferase domain containing 1
Alias
LPEAT1 | LPLAT | LPLAT 1 | LPSAT | OACT1 | dJ434O11.1
This gene belongs to the membrane-bound O-acetyltransferase superfamily. The encoded transmembrane protein is an enzyme that transfers organic compounds, preferably from oleoyl-CoA, to hydroxyl groups of protein targets in membranes. A translocation disrupting this gene may be associated with brachydactyly syndactyly syndrome. Alternately spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene.
