GlossaryLysophosphatidic Acid Acyltransferase Delta

enzyme converting lysophosphatidic acid into phosphatidic acid in lipid metabolism

Lysophosphatidic Acid Acyltransferase Delta (LPAAT-δ) is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in lipid metabolism by converting lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) into phosphatidic acid (PA). This process is important for the synthesis of various lipids that are essential for cell membrane structure and function. Understanding LPAAT-δ is significant in fields like cell biology and biochemistry, as it can impact cell signaling and membrane dynamics.
