Function | Acts as a magnesium-dependent phosphatidate phosphatase enzyme which catalyzes the conversion of phosphatidic acid to diacylglycerol during triglyceride, phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine biosynthesis in the reticulum endoplasmic membrane (PubMed:17158099). Plays important roles in controlling the metabolism of fatty acids at different levels. Acts also as a nuclear transcriptional coactivator for PPARGC1A to modulate lipid metabolism. |
Cellular Location | Nucleus. Cytoplasm, cytosol. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Note=Translocates from cytosol to endoplasmic reticulum membrane with increasing levels of oleate |
Tissue Location | Expressed at high level in liver and to some extend in lung, kidney, placenta, spleen, thymus, lymph node, prostate, testes, small intestine, and colon. Expressed also in circulating red blood cells and site of lymphopoiesis. |
