AGK (Acylglycerol kinase, mitochondrial) is a protein kinase, an enzyme that switches other proteins on by adding phosphate groups. In the public catalogues the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role. This dossier gathers the 0 products (0 approved), 0 trials, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.
Biology
Lipid kinase that can phosphorylate both monoacylglycerol and diacylglycerol to form lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) and phosphatidic acid (PA), respectively. Does not phosphorylate sphingosine. Phosphorylates ceramide. Phosphorylates 1,2-dioleoylglycerol more rapidly than 2,3-dioleoylglycerol. Independently of its lipid kinase activity, acts as a component of the TIM22 complex. The TIM22 complex mediates the import and insertion of multi-pass transmembrane proteins into the mitochondrial inner membrane by forming a twin-pore translocase that uses the membrane potential as the external driving force. Location: Mitochondrion inner membrane; Mitochondrion intermembrane space (UniProt). Locus 7q34 (HGNC).
