Lipins 1, 2, and 3 are Mg 2+-dependent phosphatidic acid phosphatases and catalyze the
penultimate step of triacylglycerol synthesis. We have previously investigated the
biochemistry of lipins 1 and 2 and shown that di-anionic phosphatidic acid (PA) augments
their activity and lipid binding and that lipin 1 activity is negatively regulated by
phosphorylation. In the present study, we show that phosphorylation does not affect the
catalytic activity of lipin 3 or its ability to associate with PA in vitro. The lipin proteins each …
