Comment typeDescription
Alternative ProductsEvent=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=2; Name=1; IsoId=Q9DBL9-1; Sequence=Displayed; Name=2; IsoId=Q9DBL9-2; Sequence=VSP_015345; Note=No experimental confirmation available.;
Catalytic ActivityAcyl-CoA + 1-acyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate = CoA + 1,2-diacyl-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. {ECO:0000250}.
FunctionLysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase which functions in phosphatidic acid biosynthesis. May regulate the cellular storage of triacylglycerol through activation of the phospholipase PNPLA2. Involved in keratinocyte differentiation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16679289}.
SimilarityBelongs to the peptidase S33 family. ABHD4/ABHD5 subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationCytoplasm. Lipid droplet. Note=Colocalized with PLIN and ADRP on the surface of lipid droplets. The localization is dependent upon the metabolic status of the adipocytes and the activity of PKA.
SubunitInteracts with ADRP (By similarity). Interacts with PLIN. Interacts with and PNPLA2. Interacts with PLIN5; promotes interaction with PNPLA2. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15292255, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16679289, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19064991, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21148142}.
Tissue SpecificityHighly expressed in the adipose tissue and testes. Weakly expressed in the liver, muscle, kidney, and heart. Expressed by upper epidermal layers and dermal fibroblasts in skin, hepatocytes and hypothalamus in brain (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15292255, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16679289, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18832586}.
