High-content assays for evaluating cellular and hepatic diacylglycerol acyltransferase activity

Acyl-CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) catalyzes the terminal step in triglyceride (TG) synthesis using diacylglycerol (DAG) and fatty acyl-CoA as substrates. In the liver, the production of VLDL permits the delivery of hydrophobic TG from the liver to peripheral tissues for energy metabolis...
