Facts about 1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase PNPLA3.
Acyl donors are long chain (at least C16) fatty acyl-CoAs: arachidonoyl-CoA, linoleoyl-CoA, oleoyl-CoA and at a lesser extent palmitoyl-CoA (PubMed:22560221). Additionally owns low triacylglycerol lipase and CoA-independent acylglycerol transacylase activities and thus may play a part in acyl-chain remodeling of triglycerides (PubMed:15364929, PubMed:20034933, PubMed:22560221).
