Diacylglycerol kinase

UniProtKB accession:  P0ABN1

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Catalyzes the ATP-dependent phosphorylation of sn-l,2-diacylglycerol (DAG) to phosphatidic acid (PubMed:218816, PubMed:2828054, PubMed:2984194, PubMed:3009449, PubMed:6277376, PubMed:6303781, PubMed:9305868). Involved in the recycling of diacylglycerol produced as a by-product during membrane-derived oligosaccharide (MDO) biosynthesis (PubMed:217867, PubMed:6305970). In vitro, phosphorylates various substrates, including sn-1,2-dioleoylglycerol, sn-1,2-dioctanoylglycerol, sn-1,2-dipalmitoylglycerol, sn-1,2-dipalmitate and ceramide (PubMed:218816, PubMed:2828054, PubMed:2984194, PubMed:3009449, PubMed:3021764). Catalyzes direct phosphoryl transfer from Mg-ATP to diacylglycerol and does not form an enzyme-phosphate intermediate (PubMed:9305868).
