Summary
Predicted to enable diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase activity. Predicted to act upstream of or within diacylglycerol biosynthetic process; monoacylglycerol biosynthetic process; and triglyceride biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in lipid droplet and perinuclear endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Is expressed in dermal system; ectoderm; genital system; nervous system; and visual system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease. Orthologous to human DGAT2 (diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 2).

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.
