Structure-Function Analysis of Diacylglycerol Acyltransferase Sequences from 70 Organisms

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Diacylglycerol acyltransferase families (DGATs) catalyze the final and rate-limiting step of triacylglycerol (TAG) biosynthesis in eukaryotic organisms. Understanding the roles of DGATs will help to create transgenic plants with valu...
