MBOAT2
membrane bound glycerophospholipid O-acyltransferase 2 | FLJ14415, FLJ90298, LPLAT13, OACT2

Enables 1-acylglycerophosphocholine O-acyltransferase activity; 1-acylglycerophosphoethanolamine O-acyltransferase activity; and 1-acylglycerophosphoserine O-acyltransferase activity. Involved in phosphatidylcholine acyl-chain remodeling; phosphatidylethanolamine acyl-chain remodeling; and phosphatidylserine acyl-chain remodeling. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Predicted to be active in membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

MBOAT2 — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating MBOAT2 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for MBOAT2. The Binding column indicates whether any binding evidence exists for this TF–gene pair (ChIP-seq or motif footprint peaks). The Mean coef is the average Perturb-seq regression coefficient across active gRNAs (positive = MBOAT2 upregulated upon KD; negative = downregulated). The Outlier column indicates whether this gene is in the top or bottom 5% of all TF knockdown effects.

Elements linked to MBOAT2

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of MBOAT2, linked by TSS proximity or chromatin conformation (Multiome / HiCAR). Each element overlaps at least one TF ChIP-seq binding site — the TFs column shows how many distinct TFs bind that element.
