Gpat4 - glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase 4 Gene

Also Known as Agpat6; Tsarg7

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 102247

Summary

Enables glycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase activity. Involved in triglyceride biosynthetic process. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including acylglycerol metabolic process; glandular epithelial cell maturation; and lactation. Located in endoplasmic reticulum. Is expressed in several structures, including adipose tissue; brain; genitourinary system; liver; and mammary gland. Orthologous to human GPAT4 (glycerol-3-phosphate Acyltransferase 4).
