1 | The use of stable isotope-labeled glycerol and oleic acid to differentiate the hepatic functions of DGAT1 and -2. | Glycerol | diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 1 | Homo sapiens |
2 | Thus, our results indicate that DGAT1 and DGAT2 mediate distinct hepatic functions: DGAT2 is primarily responsible for incorporating endogenously synthesized FAs into TG, whereas DGAT1 plays a greater role in esterifying exogenous FAs to glycerol. | Glycerol | diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 1 | Homo sapiens |
