Comments
Comment typeDescription
Catalytic ActivityAcyl-CoA + 1,2-diacylglycerol = CoA + triacylglycerol.
Disruption PhenotypeNo decrease in oil content. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20040537}.
FunctionCatalyzes the terminal and only committed step in triacylglycerol synthesis by using diacylglycerol and fatty acyl CoA as substrates. Required for storage lipid synthesis (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
PathwayGlycerolipid metabolism; triacylglycerol biosynthesis.
Sequence CautionSequence=CAB63016.1; Type=Erroneous gene model prediction; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
SimilarityBelongs to the diacylglycerol acyltransferase family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationEndoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000305}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000305}.
Tissue SpecificityUbiquitous. Lower levels in seeds than in other tissues. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20101470}.
