Regulation of mTOR by phosphatidic acid

Trends in Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2023
mTORC1, the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1, is a key regulator of cellular physiology. The lipid metabolite phosphatidic acid (PA) binds to and activates mTORC1 in response to nutrients and growth factors. We review structural findings and propose a model for PA activation of mTORC1.

Messenger functions of phosphatidic acid

Chemistry and Physics of Lipids, 1996
Under physiological conditions, phosphatidic acid (PA) is an anionic phospholipid with moderate biological reactivity. Some of its biological effects can be attributed to lyso-PA and diacylglycerol generated by the action of cellular hydrolases. However, it is clear that the parent compound exhibits biological activities of its own.

Signaling functions of phosphatidic acid

Progress in Lipid Research, 2006
Phosphatidic acid (PA) has emerged as a new class of lipid mediators involved in diverse cellular functions in plants, animals, and microorganisms. Considerable progress has been made recently on the production, cellular function, and mode of action of PA in the cell.

Phosphatidic Acid-Mediated Signaling

2013
Phosphatidic acid (PA) is recognized as an important class of lipid messengers. The cellular PA levels are dynamic; PA is produced and metabolized by several enzymatic reactions, including different phospholipases, lipid kinases, and phosphatases. PA interacts with various proteins and the interactions may modulate enzyme catalytic activities and/or ...

Pulmonary phosphatidic acid phosphatase. Properties of membrane-bound phosphatidate-dependent phosphatidic acid phosphatase in rat lung

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Lipids and Lipid Metabolism, 1979
1. The membrane-bound phosphatidate-dependent phosphatidic acid phosphatase activity of rat lung has been investigated in cytosol and microsomal fractions using as a substrate [32P]phosphatidate bound to heat inactivated rat liver microsomes. Both activities demonstrated broad pH optima with a maximum of 7.4--8 for the cytosol and a maximum of 6.5--7.5

Phosphatidic acids as intermediates in fatty acid absorption

Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1960
Abstract Following the incubation of intestinal segments from the hamster in either palmitic acid-C 14 or NaH 2 P 32 O 4 , the phospholipid fraction containing the major activity is phosphatidic acids. The incorporation of P 32 into phosphatidic acids in the intestinal wall is increased two- to threefold when fatty acids are included in the ...
