| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable long-chain-alcohol O-fatty-acyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in lipid metabolic process. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Orthologous to human AWAT1 (acyl-CoA wax alcohol acyltransferase 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit dry eyes associated with clogged meibomian gland orifice, reduced tear breakup time, and reduced production of (O-acyl)-omega-hydroxy fatty acids and tri-unsaturated species of 1 omega wax diesters.
