| View/Edit Human | View/Edit Mouse |
Glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase 3 (GPAT-3) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the AGPAT9 gene.[3][4][5][6] GPAT-3 is also known as:
- 1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase 9 (AGPAT9),
- lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase theta (LPAAT-theta), or
- lung cancer metastasis-associated protein 1.
Function
Glycerol-3-phosphate (G3P) acyltransferases (GPAT; EC 2.3.1.15), such as GPAM and GPAT3 (this enzyme), catalyze the initial step of de novo triacylglycerol (TAG) synthesis by converting glycerol-3-phosphate (G3P) to lysophosphatidic acid (LPA).[4]
