Protein Type Enzyme
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in acyltransferase activity
Specific Function Esterifies acyl-group from acyl-ACP to the sn-1 position of glycerol-3-phosphate, an essential step in glycerolipid biosynthesis. Active against both saturated and unsaturated long-chain fatty acyl-CoAs.
Pathways
  • CDP-diacylglycerol biosynthesis
  • Glycerolipid metabolism
  • Glycerophospholipid metabolism
