Background:
This gene encodes a member of the 1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase family. This integral membrane protein converts lysophosphatidic acid, to phosphatidic acid, the second step in de novo phospholipid biosynthesis.
Synonyms:
1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase 4
UniProt Protein Function:
AGPAT4: Converts lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) into phosphatidic acid by incorporating an acyl moiety at the sn-2 position of the glycerol backbone.
