LPAT2 — Camelina sativa

Summary

CsLPAT4 (CSA09G079600, also known as LPAT2) encodes a lysophosphatidate acyltransferase with EC 2.3.1.51 activity, belonging to the acyltransferase and glycerol-acyltransferase domain families. The gene is associated with CDP-diacylglycerol anabolism, fatty acid elongation, and localisation to the endomembrane system, ER membrane, and mitochondria. It has been linked to oleic acid content, seed size, nitrogen starvation response, glycerolipid biosynthesis, triacylglycerol accumulation, and phospholipid biosynthesis. Related genes in other species connect the family to similar lipid metabolic processes.
