Glycerol-3-phosphate (1)-acyltransferase(G3PAT) catalyses the incorporation of an acyl group from either acyl-acyl carrier proteins or acyl-CoAs into the sn-1 position of glycerol 3-phosphate to yield 1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate. G3PATs can either be selective, preferentially using the unsaturated fatty acid, oleate (C18:1), as the acyl donor, or non-selective, using either oleate or the saturated fatty acid, palmitate (C16:0), at comparable rates. The differential substrate-specificity for saturated versus unsaturated fatty acids seen within this enzyme family has been implicated in the sensitivity of plants to chilling temperatures [2]. The exact function of this domain is not known. it lies upstream of family Acyltransferase, Pfam:PF01553.

glycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase  M-CSA #783

Glycerol-3-phosphate (1)-acyltransferase (G3PAT) catalyses the attachment of an acyl group from either acyl-carrier proteins (acyl-ACPs) or acyl-CoAs onto the C1 hydroxyl group of glycerol-3-phosphate to give 1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate. Different G3PAT enzymes have different substrate specificities, with some preferring to add the unsaturated fatty acid oleate and others using both oleate and the saturated fatty acid palmitate. The different substrate specificities within this family has been implicated in the sensitivity of plants to chilling temperatures.
