Function Catalyzes the conversion of phosphatidic acid (PA) to diacylglycerol (DG). In addition it hydrolyzes lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), ceramide-1-phosphate (C-1-P) and sphingosine-1- phosphate (S-1-P). The relative catalytic efficiency is PA > C-1-P > LPA > S-1-P.
Subcellular Location Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
Tissue Specificity Found mainly in brain, pancreas and placenta.
Top Pathways Fc gamma R-mediated phagocytosis, Fat digestion and absorption, Choline metabolism in cancer, Ether lipid metabolism, Glycerolipid metabolism
