This enzyme has a molecular mass of about 47 kDa. It is mainly expressed in liver brain and adipose tissues playing a significant role in regulating lipid levels within these areas. Its activity affects the production and breakdown of fats indicating its importance in metabolic processes.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThis enzyme mediates lipid homeostasis and energy metabolism which are critical for cellular functions. It does not form part of a complex but works by reducing phosphatidic acid levels influencing the signaling pathways that control cell growth and differentiation. By managing lipid synthesis and degradation it helps maintain an equilibrium in lipid-related signaling processes. The conversion it catalyzes influences membrane dynamics and organelle formation.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nThe enzyme actively participates in the glycerolipid biosynthesis and insulin signaling pathways. In the glycerolipid biosynthesis pathway it interacts with related enzymes like acyl-CoA synthetase and diacylglycerol acyltransferase to regulate fatty acid processing. Its role in the insulin signaling pathway affects glucose uptake by modulating lipid signals that dictate metabolic responses to insulin aligning with other vital metabolic proteins like AMPK.\u003cbr\u003e\nAbnormal levels or function of phosphatidic acid phosphatase type 2B have links to metabolic disorders such as obesity and type 2 diabetes. This enzyme also relates to familial partial lipodystrophy which involves abnormal fat deposition in the body. Its connection to these conditions involves proteins such as perilipin which regulates lipid storage and adiponectin which is involved in insulin sensitivity further demonstrating its significance in lipid and glucose metabolism.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46854231326889,"sku":"ab221918","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab221918","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
