Name Phosphatidate phosphatase LPIN2
Description Not Available
Synonyms
  1. Lipin-2
Gene Name LPIN2
Protein Type Enzyme
Biological Properties
General Function Not Available
Specific Function Plays important roles in controlling the metabolism of fatty acids at differents levels. Acts as a magnesium-dependent phosphatidate phosphatase enzyme which catalyzes the conversion of phosphatidic acid to diacylglycerol during triglyceride, phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine biosynthesis in the reticulum endoplasmic membrane. Acts also as a nuclear transcriptional coactivator for PPARGC1A to modulate lipid metabolism (By similarity).
