Membrane bound O-acyltransferase domain containing 7 (MBOAT7; LENG4; LPLAT7) belongs to membrane-bound O-acyltransferase (MBOAT) family. The protein shows an endoplasmic reticulum-like reticular pattern and perinuclear staining in HEK293 cells.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide directed towards the C terminal region of human LENG4
Application
Anti-LENG4 antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blotting at a concentration of 5.0μg/ml. The antibody has been used for western blotting for proteins isolated from mice brain tissue.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Membrane bound O-acyltransferase domain containing 7 (MBOAT7; LENG4) is an integral membrane protein important for reacylation of phospholipids. The reacylation is an important step in the recycling of phospholipids via the Land cycle. LENG4 is highly specific for arachidonoyl-coenzyme A and is involved in arachidonate recycling. LENG4 interacts with the small subunit of serine palmitoyltransferase a (ssSPTa). This interaction is important for LENG4-dependent incorporation of arachidonic acid into phosphatidylinositol.

The I148M Patatin-like Phospholipase Domain-containing 3 (PNPLA3), the rs641738 in the Membrane bound O-acyltransferase domain containing 7-transmembrane channel-like 4 (MBOAT7-TMC4) locus, and the E167K Transmembrane 6 Superfamily Member 2 (TM6SF2) polymorphisms represent the main predisposing factors to nonalcoholic fatty liver disease
We disrupted the gene encoding lysophosphatidylinositol-acyltransferase-1 (LPIAT1) in the mouse with the aim of understanding its role in determining cellular phosphoinositide content. LPIAT1(-/-) mice were born at lower than Mendelian ratios and exhibited a severe developmental brain defect. We compared

The cycle of deacylation and reacylation of phospholipids plays a critical role in regulating availability of arachidonic acid for eicosanoid production. The major yeast lysophospholipid acyltransferase, Ale1p, is related to mammalian membrane-bound O-acyltransferase (MBOAT) proteins. We expressed four human MBOATs

Lysophosphatidylinositol acyltransferase 1 (LPIAT1), also known as MBOAT7, is a phospholipid acyltransferase that selectively incorporates arachidonic acid (AA) into the sn-2 position of phosphatidylinositol (PI). We previously demonstrated that LPIAT1 regulates AA content in PI and plays a crucial role

Cells of all organisms are enclosed by a plasma membrane containing bipolar lipids, cholesterol, and proteins. Cellular membranes contain several classes of glycerophospholipids, which have numerous structural and functional roles in cells. Polyunsaturated fatty acids including arachidonic acid and eicosapentaenoic
