Various isoforms of the enzyme, 1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase (AGPAT), acylate lysophosphatidic acid at the sn-2 position to produce phosphatidic acid. We cloned a cDNA predicted to be AGPAT isoform and designated it AGPAT8. Human and mouse AGPAT8 proteins are 89% homologous, and their gene structure is also highly conserved. AGPAT8 is most closely related to AGPAT5, and its cDNA is expressed most in the heart, while AGPAT5 is expressed more in the prostate and testis. In cell lysates, AGPAT8 shows moderate acyltransferase activity with [(3)H]oleoyl-CoA but lacks acyl-CoA:lysocardiolipin acyltransferase activity. In whole cells upon incubation with [(14)C]linoleic acid, most of the radioactivity was recovered in phosphatidyl ethanolamine, phosphatidyl choline and phosphatidic acid fraction. Of the two well conserved acyltransferase motifs, NHX(4)D is present in AGPAT8, whereas arginine in the EGTR motif is substituted by aspartate. However, mutation of EGTD to EGTR did not increase enzymatic activity significantly. Based on the X-ray crystallographic structure of a related acyltransferase, squash gpat, a model is proposed in which a hydrophobic pocket in AGPAT8 accommodates fatty acyl chains of both substrates in an orientation where the NHX(4)D motif participates in catalysis."xsd:string
