There are a number of related genes present on chromosomes 20 and 22| and putative pseudogenes for this gene on chromosomes 2| 13| and 22

The protein forms heterodimers with other bHLH proteins and activates transcription of genes that contain a specific DNA sequence known as the E-box

Contains 1 RING-type zinc finger

DGAT2L3 Polyclonal Antibody, 50ul Measuring Instruments MIM 612725) (McConnell et alAcyl CoA wax alcohol acyltransferase 1 encoded by AWAT1 belongs to the diacylglycerol acyltransferase family. It esterifies long chain (wax) alcohols with acyl CoA derived fatty acids to produce wax esters. Wax esters are enriched in sebum, suggesting that this enzyme plays a central role in lipid metabolism in skin. Consistent with this observation, this protein is predominantly expressed in the sebaceous gland of the skin.
