Comments
Comment typeDescription
Catalytic ActivityAcyl-CoA + 1-acyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate = CoA + 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15772283}.
DomainThe HXXXXD motif is essential for acyltransferase activity and may constitute the binding site for the phosphate moiety of the glycerol-3-phosphate. {ECO:0000250}.
FunctionConverts lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) into phosphatidic acid by incorporating acyl moiety at the 2 position. Has preference for C-18-CoA substrates compared to C-16-CoA substrates.
PathwayPhospholipid metabolism; CDP-diacylglycerol biosynthesis; CDP-diacylglycerol from sn-glycerol 3-phosphate: step 2/3.
Sequence CautionSequence=BX813937; Type=Erroneous termination; Positions=325; Note=Translated as Gln.; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
SimilarityBelongs to the 1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationMembrane {ECO:0000305}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000305}.
Tissue SpecificityPredominantly expressed in pollen. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15772283}.
