Target Information
Lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase 1 (LPCAT1) possesses both acyltransferase and acetyltransferase activities and functions independently of calcium. A deficiency in LPCAT1 can result in reduced levels of saturated phosphatidylcholine (PC) within lung surfactant, adversely impacting lung function and leading to respiratory failure and subsequent death in newborn mice. Additionally, LPCAT1 is crucial for the survival of retinal photoreceptor cells. Research indicates that a lack of LPCAT1 alters the phospholipid composition of the retinal outer segment (OS) membrane, particularly causing a substantial drop in DPPC levels, which is strongly associated with the apoptosis of retinal photoreceptor cells.
