Catalyzes also the acylation of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) into phosphatidic acid (PA) (LPAAT activity). Has also a very weak lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase (LPCAT activity). Prefers oleoyl-CoA as the acyl donor. Lysophospholipid acyltransferases (LPLATs) catalyze the reacylation step of the phospholipid remodeling pathway also known as the Lands cycle. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18772128}. |MBOAT| |1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase activity| |phosphatidylethanolamine acyl-chain remodeling| |phosphatidylcholine acyl-chain remodeling| |phosphatidylcholine metabolic process| |ammonium ion metabolic process| |phospholipid biosynthetic process| |glycerophospholipid metabolic process| |phospholipid metabolic process| |glycerolipid metabolic process| |organophosphate biosynthetic process| |lipid biosynthetic process| |organophosphate metabolic process| |endoplasmic reticulum membrane| |cellular lipid metabolic process| |lipid metabolic process| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp333|All-trans-Retinoic-Acid 8μM R07 exp333]]|-1.75| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
