Dgat2 - Diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 2

Predicted to enable diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase activity. Involved in lipid droplet organization. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including adult head; amnioserosa; plasmatocyte primordium; procrystal cell; and yolk nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease. Orthologous to several human genes including MOGAT1 (monoacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 1); MOGAT2 (monoacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 2); and MOGAT3 (monoacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 3).
