Function
Esterifies acyl-group from acyl-ACP to the sn-1 position of glycerol-3-phosphate, an essential step in glycerolipid biosynthesis. Active against both saturated and unsaturated long-chain fatty acyl-CoAs. -
Tissue specificity
Ubiquitous. Relatively high level of expression in skeletal muscle, heart and testis. Relatively low level of expression in lung. -
Pathway
Phospholipid metabolism; CDP-diacylglycerol biosynthesis; CDP-diacylglycerol from sn-glycerol 3-phosphate: step 1/3. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the 1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase family. -
Domain
The HXXXXD motif is essential for acyltransferase activity and may constitute the binding site for the phosphate moiety of the glycerol-3-phosphate. -
Cellular localization
Endoplasmic reticulum membrane. - Information by UniProt

Anti-GPAT4 antibody (ab76707) at 1 µg/ml + Human skeletal muscle tissue lysate - total protein (ab29330) at 10 µg
Secondary
Goat polyclonal to Rabbit IgG - H&L - Pre-Adsorbed (HRP) at 1/3000 dilution
Developed using the ECL technique.
Performed under reducing conditions.
Predicted band size: 52 kDa
Observed band size: 49 kDa why is the actual band size different from the predicted?
Additional bands at: 30 kDa. We are unsure as to the identity of these extra bands.
Exposure time: 10 minutes
The band observed at 49 kDa could potentially be a cleaved form of Human 1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase zeta precursor (AGPAT6). The protein contains a 36 amino acid signal peptide, which when cleaved gives an expected molecular weight of 48 kDa.
