Target Details for AWAT2

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

Alternative Name: AWAT2

Background: Acyl-CoA wax alcohol acyltransferase 2, Acyl-CoA retinol O-fatty-acyltransferase, ARAT, Retinol O-fatty-acyltransferase, Diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 2-like protein 4, Diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase candidate 4, hDC4, Long-chain-alcohol O-fatty-acyltransferase 2, Multifunctional O-acyltransferase, Wax synthase, hWSAWAT2 (Acyl-CoA Wax Alcohol Acyltransferase 2) is a Protein Coding gene. Among its related pathways are Metabolism and Regulation of lipid metabolism by Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha). AWAT2 encodes an enzyme belonging to the diacylglycerol acyltransferase family. This enzyme produces wax esters by the esterification of long chain (or wax) alcohols with acyl-CoA-derived fatty acids. It functions in lipid metabolism in the skin, mostly in undifferentiated peripheral sebocytes. This enzyme may also have acyl-CoA: retinol acyltransferase activities, where it catalyzes the synthesis of diacylglycerols and retinyl esters.
