The MBOAT (membrane bound O-acyl transferase) family of membrane proteins is a family of various acyltransferase enzymes. All family members contain multiple transmembrane domains and most carry two conserved residues which might be active-site residues, a conservedhistidine (His) embedded in a hydrophobic stretch of residues and an asparagine (Asn) or histidine within a more hydrophilic region some 30-50 residues upstream.[1]
Subgroup 2: enzymes involved in protein/peptide acylation;
Subgroup 3: enzymes involved in phospholipid re-modelling.[3]
