Scientific Background : Diacylglycerol kinase epsilon (DAG kinase epsilon) is the only member of class III diacylglycerol kinase family, which lacks the E-F hand motifs for Ca+ binding but possess a clear selectivity for arachidonoyl-containing species of diacylglycerol (1). DGK epsilon might decrease signals conducted via arachidonoyl-diacylglycerol or promotes the synthesis of phospholipids with certain fatty acids (1). DGK epsilon contributes to Huntington disease pathogenesis and its inhibition might be effect in the therapeutics (2). Also, recessive mutations in DGKE results in unrestricted complement activation in atypical hemolytic-uremic syndrome (3).
