Comment typeDescription
Catalytic ActivityAcyl-CoA + 1-acyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate = CoA + 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate.
Catalytic ActivityAcyl-CoA + sn-glycerol 3-phosphate = CoA + 1- acyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate.
CautionDespite its name, the human homolog of this protein appears to lack measurable glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase activity under some conditions (PMID:19318427). {ECO:0000305}.
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}.
FunctionMay transfer the acyl-group from acyl-coA to the sn-1 position of glycerol-3-phosphate, an essential step in glycerolipid biosynthesis. Also transfers the acyl-group from acyl-coA to the sn-2 position of 1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate (lysophosphatidic acid, or LPA), forming 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol-3- phosphate (phosphatidic acid, or PA) (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
PathwayGlycerolipid metabolism; triacylglycerol biosynthesis.
PathwayPhospholipid metabolism; CDP-diacylglycerol biosynthesis; CDP-diacylglycerol from sn-glycerol 3-phosphate: step 1/3.
SimilarityBelongs to the 1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationEndoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000250}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250}.
