Characterization of the diversification of phospholipid:diacylglycerol acyltransferases in the green lineage
Download2020-06-15
Falarz, Lucas J., Xu, Yang, Caldo, Kristian Mark P., Garroway, Colin J., Singer, Stacy D., Chen, Guanqun
Triacylglycerols have important physiological roles in photosynthetic organisms, and are widely used as food, feed and industrial materials in our daily life. Phospholipid:diacylglycerol acyltransferase (PDAT) is the pivotal enzyme catalyzing the acyl‐CoA‐independent biosynthesis of...

Plant sn‐Glycerol‐3‐Phosphate Acyltransferases: Biocatalysts Involved in the Biosynthesis of Intracellular and Extracellular Lipids
Download2018-05-31
Jayawardhane, Kethmi N., Singer, Stacy D., Weselake, Randall J., Chen, Guanqun
Acyl‐lipids such as intracellular phospholipids, galactolipids, sphingolipids, and surface lipids play a crucial role in plant cells by serving as major components of cellular membranes, seed storage oils, and extracellular lipids such as cutin and suberin. Plant lipids are also widely used to...
