abstract：:Ghrelin-O-acyltransferase (GOAT) is a membrane-bound enzyme that attaches eight-carbon octanoate to a serine residue in ghrelin and thereby acylates inactive ghrelin to produce active ghrelin. In this study, we investigated the function of GOAT in the intestinal mucosal barrier. The intestinal mucosal barrier prevents...
