About LPCAT4

Cytogenetic location: 15q14 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 15:34,358,633-34,367,196 (from NCBI)

This gene has 9 transcripts (splice variants), 195 orthologues and 4 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in stomach (RPKM 27.5), duodenum (RPKM 20.5) and 23 other tissues.

Summary

Members of the 1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.51) family, such as AGPAT7, catalyze the conversion of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) to phosphatidic acid (PA), a precursor in the biosynthesis of all glycerolipids. Both LPA and PA are involved in signal transduction (Ye et al., 2005 [PubMed 16243729]).[supplied by OMIM, May 2008]
