Specifications
Target Information
The enzyme Lysophospholipid acyltransferase LPCAT4 demonstrates acyl-CoA-dependent lysophospholipid acyltransferase activity, utilizing specific lysophospholipids as substrates. It facilitates the conversion of lysophosphatidylethanolamine to phosphatidylethanolamine, 1-alkenyl-lysophatidylethanolamine to 1-alkenyl-phosphatidylethanolamine, and transforms lysophosphatidylglycerol and alkyl-lysophosphatidylcholine into phosphatidylglycerol and alkyl-phosphatidylcholine, respectively. Overexpression of LPCAT4 in mouse liver can markedly enhance insulin secretion following glucose stimulation. This increase is due to LPCAT4's role in altering the types of phosphatidylcholine (PC) and lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) within pancreatic β cells, particularly by elevating the ratio of PC 40:7, which includes oleic acid and docosahexaenoic acid.
