Phosphatidic acidis a major intermediate metabolite involved in the synthesis of membraneglycerophospholipids, including phosphatidylcholine(PC),phosphatidylserine(PS), phosphatidylethanolamine(PE),phosphatidylserine (PS). PA is signaling molecule, originally synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and is transported to the mitochondrial outer membrane to stimulate mitofusin (Mfn)-mediated fusion.
