General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction loss of CdsA function causes significant accumulation of neutral lipids in many tissues along with reduced cell/organ size. These phenotypes can be traced back to reduced phosphatidylinositol levels and, subsequently, low insulin pathway activity. Overexpressing CdsA rescues the fat storage and cell growth phenotypes of insulin pathway mutants. A diacylglycerol-to-phosphatidylethanolamine route mediated by the choline/ethanolamine phosphotransferase Bbc may contribute to the growth of fat cells in silenced CdsA RNAi. CdsA RNAi affects phosphatidylinositol metabolism and insulin pathway activity, strong salivary gland fat storage phenotype of CdsA RNAi. CdsA mutations affect salivary gland fat storage and cell size. But loss of function of CdsA does not affect fat cell lipid storage and growth Drosophila melanogaster

physiological function the enzyme diverts phosphatidic acid from triacylglycerol synthesis to phosphatidylinositol synthesis and coordinates cell growth and fat storage. Enzyme CdsA coordinates cell/tissue growth and lipid storage through the insulin pathway. The enzyme is important for the phototransduction pathway.
