Protein existenceEvidence at protein level

General annotation (Comments)

Function

Upon cell stimulation converts the second messenger diacylglycerol into phosphatidate, initiating the resynthesis of phosphatidylinositols and attenuating protein kinase C activity.

Catalytic activity

ATP + 1,2-diacylglycerol = ADP + 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate.

Enzyme regulation

Stimulated by calcium and phosphatidylserine. Phosphorylated by protein kinase C.

Subunit structure

Monomer.

Tissue specificity

Lymphocytes and oligodendroglial cells.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the eukaryotic diacylglycerol kinase family.

Contains 1 DAGKc domain.

Contains 2 EF-hand domains.

Contains 2 phorbol-ester/DAG-type zinc fingers.

Alternative products

This entry describes 2 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select]
Isoform 1 (identifier: P23743-1)

This isoform has been chosen as the 'canonical' sequence. All positional information in this entry refers to it. This is also the sequence that appears in the downloadable versions of the entry.
Isoform 2 (identifier: P23743-2)

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     117-118: FT → WS
     119-735: Missing.
Note: May be produced at very low levels due to a premature stop codon in the mRNA, leading to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay.
