Background： This gene is a member of the type IV diacylglycerol kinase subfamily. Diacylglycerol kinases regulate the intracellular concentration of diacylglycerol through its phosphorylation, producing phosphatidic acid. The specific role of the enzyme encoded by this gene is undetermined, however, it may play a crucial role in the production of phosphatidic acid in the retina or in recessive forms of retinal degeneration.

Function：catalytic activity:ATP + 1,2-diacylglycerol = ADP + 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate.,similarity:Belongs to the eukaryotic diacylglycerol kinase family.,similarity:Contains 1 DAGKc domain.,similarity:Contains 2 ANK repeats.,similarity:Contains 2 phorbol-ester/DAG-type zinc fingers.,

Subcellular Location：Cell projection, axon . Cell projection, dendrite . Cell junction, synapse, presynapse . Cell junction, synapse, postsynapse . Cell junction, synapse, postsynaptic density . Cell junction, synapse, synaptic cell membrane . Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle, synaptic vesicle membrane . Cytoplasm, cytosol . Nucleus . Excluded from inhibitory synapses (By similarity). Localization between cytoplasm and nucleus is regulated by protein kinase C (PubMed:9830018). Both in the detergent soluble and particulate fractions (By similarity). .

Expression：Specifically expressed in brain and retina (PubMed:9830018). In brain, highly expressed in hippocampus, caudate nucleus, occipital pole, cerebral cortex, and cerebellum (PubMed:9830018). Also detected in kidney (PubMed:15894621).
