    Summary
    Enables diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase activity. Involved in several processes, including intracellular triglyceride homeostasis; lipid storage; and triglyceride biosynthetic process. Located in lipid droplet and membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease. Orthologous to several human genes including MOGAT3 (monoacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
