MGI Phenotype FUNCTION: [Summary is not available for the mouse gene. This summary is for the human ortholog.] The protein encoded by this gene is an acyltransferase that converts lysophosphatidic acid into phosphatidic acid, which is the second step in the de novo phospholipid biosynthetic pathway. The encoded protein may be an integral membrane protein. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit male infertility with oligozoospermia, teratozoospermia. [provided by MGI curators]

Protein Function and Prediction

AGPAT3 (1-acyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate acyltransferase 3; alternatively lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase (Lpaat3)) is one of the five isoforms of AGPAT (1). Agpat3 is a 376-aa protein that contains four transmembrane domains (2). The AGPAT family, including Agpat3, catalyze the acylation of lysophosphatidic acid to phosphatidic acid, the precursor of all glycerolipids, in de novo and remodeling pathways (1).  Agpat3 is induced during germ cell development and contributes to the accumulation of polyunsaturated fatty acids in testicular phospholipids (3).  This indicates that Agpat3 may function in sperm cell production (3).

Expression/Localization

RT-PCR determined that Agpat3 is ubiquitously expressed with some tissue variation (1).  In the mouse, quantitative real-time PCR analysis revealed that Agpat3 expression in the testis increases significantly in an age-dependent manner (2).  The Agpat3 protein was predominant in the testis, liver, and kidney (2). Due to the presence of a C-terminal KKXX sequence motif, it is proposed that Agpat3 localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) (2).  Confocal microscopy of a FLAG-Agpat3 construct confirmed that Agpat3 was expressed predominantly in the ER fraction (2).
