Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables 1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase activity. Acts upstream of or within acylglycerol metabolic process and hematopoietic progenitor cell differentiation. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human AGPAT5 (1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase 5). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for disruptions in this gene display moderate fatty changes in the liver.
