Summary: Enables 1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase activity and 1-acylglycerophosphocholine O-acyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in phosphatidylcholine acyl-chain remodeling and phospholipid biosynthetic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of phosphatidylcholine biosynthetic process; positive regulation of protein catabolic process; and surfactant homeostasis. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus; lipid droplet; and membrane. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum. Orthologous to human LPCAT1 (lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase 1).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
