Protein name Membrane-bound ghrelin O-acyltransferase MBOAT4 (EC 2.3.1.-) (Membrane-bound O-acyltransferase domain-containing protein 4) (O-acyltransferase domain-containing protein 4)
Protein function Catalyzes ghrelin acylation at 'Ser-3' using preferentially octanoyl-CoA, hexanoyl-CoA and decanoyl-CoA as acyl-CoA donors leading to ghrelin activity (PubMed:18443287, PubMed:24045953, PubMed:25562443, PubMed:28134508). In vitro also uses acyl-
Family and domains
