Comments
Comment typeDescription
Catalytic ActivityAcyl-CoA + sn-glycerol 3-phosphate = CoA + 1- acyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate
DomainThe HXXXXD motif is essential for acyltransferase activity and may constitute the binding site for the phosphate moiety of the glycerol-3-phosphate
FunctionEsterifies acyl-group from acyl-ACP to the sn-1 position of glycerol-3-phosphate, an essential step in glycerolipid biosynthesis
PathwayPhospholipid metabolism; CDP-diacylglycerol biosynthesis; CDP-diacylglycerol from sn-glycerol 3-phosphate: step 1/3.
Sequence CautionSequence=AAB39470.2; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence= ;
SimilarityBelongs to the GPAT/DAPAT family
Subcellular LocationMitochondrion outer membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein .
