Abstract
AGPATs (1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferases) catalyze the acylation of lysophosphatidic acid to form phosphatidic acid (PA), a key step in the synthesis of all glycerolipids. Here, the authors show that AGPAT2 and CDP-DAG synthases (CDS1 and CDS2) form functional complexes that promote further conversion of PA along the CDP-DAG pathway of phospholipid synthesis.
