    Summary
    Predicted to enable 1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase activity and glycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in phosphatidic acid biosynthetic process; piRNA processing; and triglyceride biosynthetic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within glycerol-3-phosphate metabolic process. Located in mitochondrial outer membrane. Orthologous to human GPAT2 (glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase 2, mitochondrial). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

    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.
