DGAT2 — Brassica napus

Summary

BnDGAT2 (DARMORV10_C07P46350.1) on chromosome C07 of oilseed rape encodes a diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase (DGAT2) with a DAGAT domain, conferring diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase activity. This gene is associated with neutral lipid anabolism, triglyceride anabolism, fatty acid anabolism, lipogenesis, glycerol metabolism, adiposome organization, and seed development. The encoded protein localizes to the adiposome and ER membrane. BnDGAT2 is associated with oil accumulation, triacylglycerol accumulation, and temperature tolerance. Related genes in other species are linked to triacylglycerol biosynthesis, lipid synthesis, seed length, seed weight, and high temperature stress response.
