Background

Diacylglycerol (DAG) influences numerous cell signaling cascades by functioning as an intracellular, allosteric activator of protein kinase C (PKC), and as a potent activator of guanine nucleotide exchange factors. In order to maintain cellular homeostasis, intracellular DAG levels are tightly regulated by diacylglycerol kinases (DGKs, DAGKs), which phosphorylate DAG to phosphatidic acid, thus removing DAG. Human DGK-alpha (80 kDa), -beta (90 kDa), and - gamma (90 kDa) have calcium-binding EF-hand motifs at their N termini and are classified as type I DGKs. Human DGK-delta (130 kDa) and DGK-
