Target Details for AWAT2

Target: AWAT2 (Acyl-CoA Wax Alcohol Acyltransferase 2 (AWAT2))

Alternative Name: AWAT2

Background:

Description: Acyltransferase that predominantly esterify long chain (wax) alcohols with acyl-CoA-derived fatty acids to produce wax esters. Wax esters are enriched in sebum, suggesting that it plays a central role in lipid metabolism in skin. Has no activity using decyl alcohol and significantly prefers the C16 and C18 alcohols. May also have 2-acylglycerol O-acyltransferase (MGAT) and acyl-CoA:retinol acyltransferase (ARAT) activities, to catalyze the synthesis of diacylglycerols and retinyl esters, however this activity is unclear in vivo.

Gene: AWAT2

Molecular Weight: 38 kDa

Gene ID: 158835

UniProt: Q6E213
