Application

Anti-LENG4 antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blotting at a concentration of 5.0μg/ml. The antibody has been used for western blotting for proteins isolated from mice brain tissue.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Membrane bound O-acyltransferase domain containing 7 (MBOAT7; LENG4) is an integral membrane protein important for reacylation of phospholipids. The reacylation is an important step in the recycling of phospholipids via the Land cycle. LENG4 is highly specific for arachidonoyl-coenzyme A and is involved in arachidonate recycling. LENG4 interacts with the small subunit of serine palmitoyltransferase a (ssSPTa). This interaction is important for LENG4-dependent incorporation of arachidonic acid into phosphatidylinositol.
