Record overview

LMPD IDLMP005085
Gene ID84649
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Namediacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 2
Gene SymbolDGAT2
SynonymsARAT; GS1999FULL
Alternate namesdiacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 2; diglyceride acyltransferase 2; retinol O-fatty-acyltransferase; acyl-CoA retinol O-fatty-acyltransferase; diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase homolog 2; diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase-like protein 2
Chromosome11
Map Location11q13.5
EC Number2.3.1.20
SummaryThis gene encodes one of two enzymes which catalyzes the final reaction in the synthesis of triglycerides in which diacylglycerol is covalently bound to long chain fatty acyl-CoAs. The encoded protein catalyzes this reaction at low concentrations of magnesium chloride while the other enzyme has high activity at high concentrations of magnesium chloride. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011]
