摘要: Recent studies indicate that the metabolism of diacylglycerol pyrophosphate (DGPP) is involved in a novel lipid signaling pathway. DGPP phosphatases (DGPP phosphohydrolase) fromSaccharomyces cerevisiae and Escherichia colicatalyze dephosphorylation to yield phosphatidate (PA) then catalyze PA diacylglycerol. We demonstrated Mg2+-independent form phosphatase (PA phosphohydrolase, PAP2) purified from rat liver catalyzed DGPP. This reaction was Mg2+-independent, insensitive inhibition byN-ethylmaleimide bromoenol lactone, inhibited by Mn2+ ions. PAP2 exhibited high affinity for (Km = 0.04 mol %). The specificity constant (Vmax/Km) 1.3-fold higher than PA. ability dephosphorylate PA, Like PAP2, activity S. cerevisiaewas lyso-PA, sphingosine 1-phosphate, ceramide 1-phosphate.
