General annotation (Comments)

Function

Converts lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) into phosphatidic acid by incorporating an acyl moiety at the sn-2 position of the glycerol backbone. Acts on LPA containing saturated or unsaturated fatty acids C16:0-C20:4 at the sn-1 position using C18:1, C20:4 or C18:2-CoA as the acyl donor. Also acts on lysophosphatidylcholine, lysophosphatidylinositol and lysophosphatidylserine using C18:1 or C20:4-CoA. Ref.10

Catalytic activity

Acyl-CoA + 1-acyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate = CoA + 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate.

Pathway

Phospholipid metabolism; CDP-diacylglycerol biosynthesis; CDP-diacylglycerol from sn-glycerol 3-phosphate: step 2/3.

Subcellular location

Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Nucleus envelope Ref.9 Ref.10.

Tissue specificity

Widely expressed with highest levels in testis, pancreas and kidney, followed by spleen, lung, adipose tissue and liver. Ref.10

Domain

The HXXXXD motif is essential for acyltransferase activity and may constitute the binding site for the phosphate moiety of the glycerol-3-phosphate By similarity.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the 1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase family.

Biophysicochemical properties

Kinetic parameters:

KM=4.78 µM for LPA sn-1 C18:1 Ref.10

KM=21.53 µM for C18:1-CoA

Vmax=6.35 nmol/min/mg enzyme toward LPA sn-1 C18:1

Vmax=0.74 nmol/min/mg enzyme toward C18:1-CoA

Alternative products

This entry describes 3 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select]
Isoform 1 (identifier: Q9NRZ7-1)

Also known as: Gamma-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: Q9NRZ7-2)

Also known as: Gamma-2;

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     1-62: Missing.
Isoform 3 (identifier: Q9NRZ7-3)

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     1-60: MGLLAFLKTQ...CRLAYSLWSQ → MQSGGSLPFC...SANALPLSAE
Note: No experimental confirmation available.
