GlossaryPhosphatidic Acid

lipid molecule involved in cell membrane structure and signaling

Phosphatidic Acid (PA) is a type of lipid molecule that plays a crucial role in the structure and function of cell membranes. It acts as a precursor for the biosynthesis of other lipids and is involved in cell signaling pathways that regulate various cellular processes, including growth and metabolism.
