Function | Acyltransferase which catalyzes the transfer of an acyl group from an acyl-CoA to a lysophosphatidylinositol (1- acylglycerophosphatidylinositol or LPI) leading to the production of a phosphatidylinositol (1,2-diacyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoinositol or PI) and participates in the reacylation step of the phospholipid remodeling pathway also known as the Lands cycle (PubMed:18772128, PubMed:18094042). Prefers arachidonoyl-CoA as the acyl donor, thus contributing to the regulation of free levels arachidonic acid in cell (PubMed:18772128, PubMed:18094042). In liver, participates in the regulation of triglyceride metabolism through the phosphatidylinositol acyl-chain remodeling regulation (PubMed:32253259). |
Cellular Location | Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note=Localized in specific membrane structures termed mitochondria-associated membranes (MAMs) which connect the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the mitochondria. |
Tissue Location | Overexpressed in metastatic breast and bladder carcinomas relative to normal breast epithelium and urothelium |

Background
This gene encodes a member of the membrane-bound O-acyltransferases family of integral membrane proteins that have acyltransferase activity. The encoded protein is a lysophosphatidylinositol acyltransferase that has specificity for arachidonoyl-CoA as an acyl donor. This protein is involved in the reacylation of phospholipids as part of the phospholipid remodeling pathway known as the Land cycle. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
