LPCAT2 Polyclonal Antibody

catalytic activity:Acetyl-CoA + 1-alkyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine = CoA + 2-acetyl-1-alkyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine.,catalytic activity:Acyl-CoA + 1-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine = CoA + 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine.,domain:The HXXXXD motif is essential for acyltransferase activity.,enzyme regulation:Acetyltransferase activity is increased following acute inflammatory stimulation by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Acyltransferase activity is unchanged.,function:Possesses both acyltransferase and acetyltransferase activities. Activity is calcium-dependent. Involved in platelet-activating factor (PAF) biosynthesis by catalyzing the conversion of the PAF precursor, 1-O-alkyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (lyso-PAF) into 1-O-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (PAF). Also converts lyso-PAF to 1-alkyl-phosphatidylcholine (PC), a major component of cell membranes and a PAF precursor. Under resting conditions, acyltransferase activity is preferred. Upon acute inflammatory stimulus, acetyltransferase activity is enhanced and PAF synthesis increases.,pathway:Lipid metabolism; phospholipid metabolism.,similarity:Belongs to the 1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase family.,similarity:Contains 2 EF-hand domains.,
