Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * DGKA is a serine/threonine kinase that is highly expressed in immune cells. * It is a key regulator of inflammation and cell signaling. * It is involved in the regulation of platelet activation and aggregation. * It is also involved in the regulation of cell migration and proliferation. **Pathways and functions:** * DGKA is involved in the regulation of inflammation. It is expressed in inflammatory cells, such as macrophages and dendritic cells, and is activated by inflammatory signals. DGKA phosphorylates a number of substrates that are involved in inflammation, including p38 MAPK, STAT3, and COX-1. These phosphorylations help to promote inflammation. * DGKA is also involved in cell signaling. It is a key regulator of cell migration and proliferation. DGKA is expressed in a variety of cell types, including epithelial cells and immune cells. It is thought to play a role in the regulation of cell migration by binding to specific proteins and promoting their phosphorylation. * DGKA is also involved in the regulation of platelet activation and aggregation. It is expressed in platelets, and its activity is increased in response to injury or infection. DGKA phosphorylates a number of proteins involved in platelet activation, including GPCRs and integrins. These phosphorylations help to promote platelet activation and aggregation. **Clinical significance:** DGKA is a potential target for the treatment of inflammatory diseases. Inhibition of DGKA has been shown to reduce inflammation and cell proliferation in animal models of disease. This suggests that DGKA is a potential therapeutic target for a variety of inflammatory diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, asthma, and cancer.
