Thematic Review Series: Glycerolipids. Multiple roles for lipins/phosphatidate phosphatase enzymes in lipid metabolism*
Phosphatidate phosphatase-1 (PAP1) enzymes have a key role in glycerolipid synthesis through the conversion of phosphatidate to diacylglycerol, the immediate precursor of triacylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, and phosphatidylethanolamine. PAP1 activity in mammals is determined by the lipin family of...
