Function: Plays important roles in controlling the metabolism of fatty acids at differents levels. Acts as a magnesium-dependent phosphatidate phosphatase enzyme which catalyzes the conversion of phosphatidic acid to diacylglycerol during triglyceride, phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine biosynthesis in the reticulum endoplasmic membrane. Acts also as a nuclear transcriptional coactivator for PPARGC1A to modulate lipid metabolism (By similarity).
Catalytic activity: A 1,2-diacylglycerol 3-phosphate + H(2)O = a 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol + phosphate.
Disease:
Cellular location: Nucleus (By similarity). Cytoplasm, cytosol (By similarity). Endoplasmic reticulum membrane (By similarity). Note=Translocates to endoplasmic reticulum membrane with increasing levels of oleate (By similarity).
Tissue specificity: Expressed in liver, lung, kidney, placenta, spleen, thymus, lymph node, prostate, testes, small intestine, and colon.
