Background Information
AWAT1 is an ER-localized acyltransferase specialized for wax ester biosynthesis in sebaceous and meibomian glands. By esterifying long-chain fatty acyl-CoAs with fatty alcohols, AWAT1 generates crucial lipids that maintain skin barrier function, sebaceous secretion, and tear film stability. Dysregulation of AWAT1 contributes to meibomian gland dysfunction, dry eye disease, and sebaceous lipid imbalance, positioning AWAT1 as a key enzymatic regulator of surface lipid homeostasis.
