Abstract excerpt
Glycerol phosphate acyltransferase (GPAT) catalyzes the formation of 1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate from glycerol-3-phosphate and long chain fatty acyl-CoA substrates. We previously determined the topography of the mitochondrial GPAT1 isoform (mtGPAT1, 828 amino acids). mtGPAT1 has two transmembrane domains (TMDs) (aa 472-493 and aa 576-592) with both the N- and C-termini facing the cytosol and a loop (aa...
