UniProt Protein Function: | AADACL1: a single-pass type II membrane microsomal protein. Hydrolyzes 2-acetyl monoalkylglycerol ether, the penultimate precursor of the pathway for de novo synthesis of platelet-activating factor (acetyl-glyceryl-ether-phosphorylcholine). Elevated in invasive cancer cells from several different tumor types. May be involved in the elevated neutral ether lipid content and elevated LPA signaling in cancer cells. May be responsible for cholesterol ester hydrolysis in macrophages, thereby contributing to the development of atherosclerosis. Also involved in organ detoxification by hydrolyzing exogenous organophosphorus compounds. May contribute to cancer pathogenesis by promoting tumor cell migration. A key enzymatic node regulating an ether lipid signaling network in cancer; regulates MAGE and lysophospholipid levels in invasive cancer cells. Three alternatively spliced human isoforms have been described. |
