Summary

DGKK (diacylglycerol kinase kappa, HGNC:32395) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome Xp11.22, encoding Diacylglycerol kinase kappa (Q5KSL6). Diacylglycerol kinase that converts diacylglycerol/DAG into phosphatidic acid/phosphatidate/PA and regulates the respective levels of these two bioactive lipids.

The protein encoded by this gene is an enzyme that phosphorylates diacylglycerol, converting it to phosphatidic acid. The encoded protein is a membrane protein and is inhibited by hydrogen peroxide. Variations in this gene have been associated with hypospadias.

Function. Diacylglycerol kinase that converts diacylglycerol/DAG into phosphatidic acid/phosphatidate/PA and regulates the respective levels of these two bioactive lipids. Thereby, acts as a central switch between the signaling pathways activated by these second messengers with different cellular targets and opposite effects in numerous biological processes.

Subunit / interactions. Does not form homooligomers.

Subcellular location. Cell membrane.

Tissue specificity. Expressed in testis, and to a lesser extent in placenta.

Post-translational modifications. Phosphorylated at Tyr-78 by some member of the SRC family in response to H(2)O(2).

Activity regulation. Inhibited in response to H(2)O(2).

Pathway. Lipid metabolism; glycerolipid metabolism.

Similarity. Belongs to the eukaryotic diacylglycerol kinase family.
