  • Official Symbol: MOGAT2
  • Official Name: monoacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 2
  • Aliases and Previous Symbols: N/A
  • Entrez ID: 80168
  • UniProt: Q3SYC2
  • Interactions: BioGRID
  • PubMed articles: Open PubMed
  • OMIM: Open OMIM
Function Summary
  • Entrez Summary: N/A
  • UniProt Summary: Catalyzes the formation of diacylglycerol from 2- monoacylglycerol and fatty acyl-CoA. Has a preference toward monoacylglycerols containing unsaturated fatty acids in an order of C18:3 > C18:2 > C18:1 > C18:0. Plays a central role in absorption of dietary fat in the small intestine by catalyzing the resynthesis of triacylglycerol in enterocytes. May play a role in diet-induced obesity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12621063}.
