LPGAT1 (Lysophosphatidylglycerol Acyltransferase 1) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with LPGAT1 include Cardiomyopathy, Dilated, 1D and Active Peptic Ulcer Disease. Among its related pathways are Metabolism and Glycerophospholipid biosynthesis. LPGAT1 encodes a member of the lysophospholipid acyltransferase family. The encoded protein catalyzes the reacylation of lysophosphatidylglycerol to phosphatidylglycerol, a membrane phospholipid that is an important precursor for the synthesis of cardiolipin. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
