basic FUNCTION
| acting as an acyltransferase |
|
converting lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) into phosphatidic acid by incorporating an acyl moiety at the sn-2 position of the glycerol backbone |
|
important enzyme in the biosynthesis of ethanolamine-containing phospholipids, especially in brain |
|
can acylate multiple, but distinct lysophospholipids, also facilitates the acylation of several other lysophospholipids |
|
possible role in modulating brain phospholipid composition |
|
may play an important role in phospholipid remodeling and phosphatidylethanolamine enrichment in the brain |
