Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody to AGPAT5

Converts lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) into phosphatidic acid by incorporating an acyl moiety at the sn-2 position of the glycerol backbone. 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. Also acts on lysophosphatidylethanolamine using oleoyl-CoA, but not arachidonoyl-CoA, and lysophosphatidylinositol using arachidonoyl-CoA, but not oleoyl-CoA. Activity toward lysophosphatidylglycerol not detectable.Wiemann S., Genome Res. 11:422-435(2001).Ota T., Nat. Genet. 36:40-45(2004).The MGC Project Team; Genome Res. 14:2121-2127(2004).
