Abstract excerpt

DGAT2 (acyl-CoA: diacylglycerol acyltransferase, EC2.3.1.20) is a member of acyl-CoA: monoacylglycerol acyltransferase (MGAT) family, which catalyzes one fatty acyl-CoA and diacylglycerol (DG) molecule to form triacylglycerols (TG) and is the final and rate-limiting step in the reaction of TG synthesis pathways. We previously showed that, during pig development, the fold change of DGAT2 mRNA in backfat tissue is...
