Abstract excerpt
Diacylglycerol kinase-ε (DGKε) phosphorylates DAG to phosphatidic acid with unique specificity toward 18:0/20:4 DAG (SAG). SAG is a typical backbone of phosphatidylinositol and its derivatives, therefore DGKε activity is crucial for the turnover of these signaling lipids. Malfunction of DGKε contributes to several pathophysiological conditions, including atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) linked with DGKE...
