lpin-1 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable phosphatidate phosphatase activity and transcription coactivator activity. Involved in several processes, including endomembrane system organization; macromolecule localization; and nematode larval development. Located in endoplasmic reticulum; nuclear envelope; and nucleoplasm. Expressed in head neurons and hypodermis. Used to study obesity. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in morbid obesity. Is an ortholog of human LPIN2 (lipin 2).
