Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** DGKG is a member of the diacylglycerol kinase family, which catalyzes the conversion of diacylglycerol (DAG) to phosphatidic acid (PA). This reaction is essential for regulating cellular signaling pathways, particularly those involving protein kinase C (PKC). DGKG has been shown to interact with various receptors, including G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), and plays a role in modulating the activity of PKC. **Pathways and Functions:** DGKG is involved in multiple signaling pathways, including: 1. **G alpha (q) signaling events:** DGKG interacts with GPCRs, modulating the activity of G alpha (q) subunits, which are essential for various cellular responses, including platelet activation and aggregation. 2. **Intracellular signal transduction:** DGKG regulates the activity of PKC, which is involved in numerous cellular processes, including cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival. 3. **Lipid metabolism:** DGKG is essential for the conversion of DAG to PA, which is a key regulator of lipid metabolism and cell signaling. 4. **Neuron development and regulation:** DGKG plays a role in regulating dendrite development and neuron function, highlighting its importance in the nervous system. **Clinical Significance:** DGKG has been implicated in various diseases, including: 1. **Cardiovascular diseases:** DGKG has been shown to play a role in platelet activation and aggregation, which are key events in the development of cardiovascular diseases. 2. **Neurological disorders:** DGKG has been implicated in neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, where dysregulation of lipid metabolism and signaling pathways contributes to disease progression. 3. **Cancer:** DGKG has been shown to regulate cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival, making it a potential target for cancer therapy. **Significantly Expressed Cells:** DGKG is expressed in various cell types, including: 1. **Anterior lens cell** 2. **Ciliary muscle cell** 3. **Lens epithelial cell** 4. **Pigmented epithelial cell** 5. **Regular ventricular cardiac myocyte** 6. **Cardiac neuron** 7. **Mature astrocyte** 8. **Astrocyte of the cerebral cortex** 9. **Contractile cell** 10. **Smooth muscle cell of sphincter of pupil** In conclusion, DGKG is a multifunctional enzyme that plays a crucial role in regulating various cellular processes, including signal transduction, lipid metabolism, and cell development. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, highlighting the need for further research into its role in immunological processes.
