Function

Converts 1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate (lysophosphatidic acid or LPA) into 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate (phosphatidic acid or PA) by incorporating an acyl moiety at the sn-2 position of the glycerol backbone (PubMed:21173190). Acts on LPA containing saturated or unsaturated fatty acids C15:0-C20:4 at the sn-1 position using C18:1-CoA as the acyl donor (PubMed:21173190). Also acts on lysophosphatidylethanolamine using oleoyl-CoA, but not arachidonoyl-CoA, and lysophosphatidylinositol using arachidonoyl-CoA, but not oleoyl-CoA (PubMed:21173190). Activity toward lysophosphatidylglycerol not detectable (PubMed:21173190).

Activity summary

AGPAT5 also known as 1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase 5 is an enzyme involved in lipid metabolism. It has a mass of approximately 47 kDa. AGPAT5 catalyzes the conversion of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) to phosphatidic acid (PA) by adding an acyl group. This enzyme is expressed in various tissues with higher levels in adipose tissue and liver. Despite its wide expression its specific regulation mechanisms remain under investigation.

Biological function summary

AGPAT5 plays a role in the biosynthesis of phospholipids and triglycerides. It is not commonly part of a large protein complex but it contributes significantly to the synthesis of important lipid molecules. These molecules are important for cell membrane formation and energy storage. AGPAT5 activity influences cellular lipid composition impacting membrane fluidity and cell signaling.

Pathways

The enzyme AGPAT5 functions within the glycerolipid metabolism pathway. It interacts directly with intermediates like lysophosphatidic acid and phosphatidic acid which are key molecules in this pathway. The enzyme also links to the phosphatidic acid biosynthesis pathway sharing functional similarities with other AGPAT family members such as AGPAT1. These interactions highlight its role in maintaining cellular lipid balance.

Associated diseases and disorders

AGPAT5 has associations with metabolic conditions like obesity and type 2 diabetes. Changes in lipid metabolism mediated by AGPAT5 can lead to altered adipose tissue function. Through its effects on lipid pathways AGPAT5 has indirect connections with other metabolic dysregulation proteins such as hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL). Further research into AGPAT5 could provide insights into therapeutic targets for these metabolic disorders.
