Name | GPAT4 (HGNC:20880) |
---|---|
Function | Converts glycerol-3-phosphate to 1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3- phosphate (lysophosphatidic acid or LPA) by incorporating an acyl moiety at the sn-1 position of the glycerol backbone (PubMed:18238778). Active against both saturated and unsaturated long-chain fatty acyl- CoAs (PubMed:18238778). Protects cells against lipotoxicity (PubMed:30846318). |
Cellular Location | Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein |
Tissue Location | Ubiquitous. High levels in testis. Relatively high level of expression in skeletal muscle and heart. Relatively low level of expression in lung. |

Background
Lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferases (EC 2.3.1.51) catalyze the conversion of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) to phosphatidic acid (PA). LPA and PA are involved in signal transduction and lipid biosynthesis.
