Peroxisomal alkylglycerone phosphate synthase (AGPS) catalyzes the reaction of 1-palmitoylglycerone phosphate and hexadecanol to form O-hexadecylglycerone phosphate and palmitate. The active form of the enzyme is post-translationally cleaved to remove its 58 aminoterminal residues, has a molecule of FAD as a cofactor, and occurs in the peroxisome as a complex with glyceronephosphate O-acyltransferase (GNPAT) (Biermann et al. 1999; Bierman and van den Bosch 1999; de Vet et al. 2000).
