Adenine nucleotide translocase 2, a putative target protein for 2-carba cyclic phosphatidic acid in microglial cells

Lipid-protein interactions play essential roles in many biological phenomena. Lysophospholipid mediators, such as cyclic phosphatidic acid (cPA), have been recognized as secondary messengers, yet few cellular targets for cPA have been identified to date. Furthermore, the molecular mechanism that activates these downstream signaling events remains unknown. In this study, using metabolically stabilized cPA carba-derivative (2ccPA)-immobilized...
