The protein encoded by this gene is an enzyme that phosphorylates diacylglycerol, converting it to phosphatidic acid. The encoded protein is a membrane protein and is inhibited by hydrogen peroxide. Variations in this gene have been associated with hypospadias. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011],catalytic activity:ATP + 1,2-diacylglycerol = ADP + 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate.,enzyme regulation:Inhibited in response to H(2)O(2).,function:Phosphorylates diacylglycerol (DAG) to generate phosphatidic acid (PA).,PTM:Phosphorylated at Tyr-78 by some member of the SRC family in response to H(2)O(2).,similarity:Belongs to the eukaryotic diacylglycerol kinase family.,similarity:Contains 1 DAGKc domain.,similarity:Contains 1 PH domain.,similarity:Contains 2 phorbol-ester/DAG-type zinc fingers.,subunit:Does not form homooligomers.,tissue specificity:Expressed in testis, and to a lesser extent in placenta.,
