Abstract excerpt
The products of mammalian LPIN2 and LPIN3 are phosphatidate phosphatase type 1 enzymes, which play an important role in the de novo biosynthesis of triacylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine. In this study, we obtained a 2,985-bp cDNA sequence of porcine LPIN2, which contains a 2,676-bp open reading frame flanked by an 11-bp 5'UTR and a 298-bp 3'UTR, and a 2,843-bp cDNA sequence of porcine...
