Background Information
AGPAT4 (Acylglycerophosphate acyltransferase 4), also known as LPAATδ (Lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase delta), is a protein expressed mainly in brain and in muscle. AGPAT4 is characterized as a mitochondrial lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase that regulates brain levels of phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), and phosphatidylinositol (PI) (PMID: 28807933). AGPAT4 is relatively abundant in murine renal white adipose tissue (WAT) and has been linked to the regulation of TAG production, the differentiation of adipocytes, and the modulation of various pathologies including lipodystrophy, diabetes, and hepatic steatosis (PMID: 28814640).
