Interplay of DGAT1, PDAT1 and DGAT2 Enzymes in Plant Triacylglycerol Assembly
… at least two unrelated <em>DGAT</em> genes, <em>DGAT1</em> and <em>DGAT2.</em> Plants predominantly express only one during oil synthesis; the reason, however is not clear. A few studies have indicated that each enzyme prefers DAG and acyl-CoA substrates with different fatty acid compositions. …

Polymorphic Variation of the DGAT1 Gene in Cal Poly Holstein and Jersey Breeds and the Correlation of Milk Fat Content, and Genetic Values
… VII of the diacylglycerol acyl transferase 1 (DGAT1) gene. DGAT1 is a key acyltranferase in triglyceride biosynthesis. DGAT1 encodes an enzyme which catalyzes the final step of mammalian triglyceride synthesis from carbohydrates. The K232A substitution in the DGAT1 gene has an effect on milk …

Genetic variation within the Icelandic cattle breed: assessment using microsatellites and analysis of single nucleotide polymorphisms in the Leptin and DGAT1 genes
… calculated. Second, parts of the Leptin and DGAT1 genes were sequenced in order to search for single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), (several in the Leptin gene and a well known dinucleotide substitution (K232A) in the DGAT1 gene). Polymorphisms in these regions have been identified and …

Associations between gene variations and milk composition in New Zealand dairy cattle: A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Lincoln University
… diacylglycerol acyl-CoA acyltransferase 1 gene (DGAT1), the fatty acid binding protein 4 gene (FABP4), the stearoyl-CoA desaturase (Δ-9-desaturase) gene (SCD1), the perilipin-2 gene (PLIN2) and the lipin-1 gene (LPIN1). These genes were chosen because they had either been implicated in fatty acid …

Analysis of the interaction between the 2C protein of parechoviruses and lipid droplets
… demonstrated that drugs which target the enzyme DGAT1, which is involved in lipid droplet formation, have a potent effect on HPeV replication. Our results suggest that blocking lipid droplet formation is could be an important strategy for the treatment of HPeV infection.

Identifying and dissecting novel QTL regulating seed fatty acid composition in Arabidopsis thaliana for the improvement of rapeseed oil
… these regions. The genes MTACP2, PKP-BETA1, DGAT1 and LTP4 were identified repeatedly during the analysis and are likely candidate genes affecting seed oil and could be target genes for future breeding.

Data Mining for Selected Genes of Agronomic Interest from the Oil Palm Genome Using a Comparative Genomics Approach
… distinctly expressed functional copies of the DGAT1, DGAT2, DGAT3 and WS/DGAT genes. Moreover, this study also able to identify orthologs sequences from other important crop species which 12 plants, namely Arabidopsis thaliana, Brachypodium distachyon, Brassica napus, Elaeis oleifera, Glycine …

Regulation of Diacylglycerol Acyltransferase-2 and Triacylglycerol Synthesis by Protein Ubiquitination
… diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) enzymes, DGAT1 and DGAT2. Although recent studies have shed light on the metabolic functions of these enzymes, little is known about their regulation. We have found that DGAT2 is a short-lived protein and is degraded via the ubiquitin- proteasome pathway. …

The role of macrophage intracellular lipid partitioning in glucose and lipid homeostasis during obesity
… diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 1 (Dgat1) gene expression in BMDMs. The second part of the chapter shows that macrophage-specific B2AR deletion did not modulate systemic glucose and lipid metabolism during obesity, but mice lacking B2ARs in macrophages demonstrated augmented hepatic …
