**Background of LPCAT4 Recombinant Protein**
Lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase 4 (LPCAT4), also known as AGPAT9 or PLA2G16. is a member of the acyltransferase family that plays a critical role in phospholipid remodeling and lipid metabolism. This enzyme catalyzes the transfer of acyl groups to lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC), converting it into phosphatidylcholine (PC), a major component of cellular membranes. LPCAT4 is distinguished by its dual enzymatic activity, functioning as both a phospholipase A2 (PLA2) and an acyltransferase, which enables it to regulate lipid composition dynamically. Its activity influences membrane fluidity, signaling pathways, and the generation of lipid mediators involved in inflammation and cellular homeostasis.
The recombinant LPCAT4 protein is produced through heterologous expression systems (e.g., *E. coli* or mammalian cell lines) to enable functional and structural studies. Purified LPCAT4 recombinant protein retains enzymatic activity, allowing researchers to investigate its substrate specificity, kinetic properties, and regulatory mechanisms. Studies have highlighted its role in incorporating polyunsaturated fatty acids (e.g., arachidonic acid) into phospholipids, linking it to inflammatory responses and lipid droplet formation. Dysregulation of LPCAT4 has been implicated in metabolic disorders, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases, underscoring its potential as a therapeutic target.
Research utilizing LPCAT4 recombinant protein has advanced understanding of lipid metabolism networks and their crosstalk with cellular processes. Its application spans drug discovery, biomarker development, and mechanistic studies of diseases associated with lipid imbalance. By enabling precise biochemical assays, recombinant LPCAT4 facilitates exploration of its physiological and pathological roles, paving the way for targeted interventions in lipid-related disorders.
