Summary
Enables 1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase activity. Involved in glycerophospholipid biosynthetic process. Located in lipid droplet. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital generalized lipodystrophy type 1 and lipodystrophy. Orthologous to human AGPAT1 (1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase 1) and AGPAT2 (1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]
