Catalytic core function of yeast Pah1 phosphatidate phosphatase reveals structural insight into its membrane localization and activity control.

ABSTRACT: The PAH1-encoded phosphatidate (PA) phosphatase is a major source of diacylglycerol for the production of the storage lipid triacylglycerol and a key regulator for the de novo phospholipid synthesis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The catalytic function of Pah1 depends on its membrane localization which is mediated through its phosphorylation by multiple protein kinases and dephosphorylation by the Nem1-Spo7 protein phosphatase complex. The full-length Pah1 is composed of a catalytic core (N-LIP and HAD-like domains, amphipathic helix, and the WRDPLVDID domain) and non-catalytic regulatory sequences (intrinsically disordered regions, RP domain, and acidic tail) for phosphorylation and interaction with Nem1-Spo7. How the catalytic core regulates Pah1 localization and cellular function is not c
