Diglycerides
Glycerides composed of two fatty acids esterified to the trihydric alcohol GLYCEROL. There are two possible forms that exist: 1,2-diacylglycerols and 1,3-diacylglycerols.
Year introduced: 1991(1975)
Diacylglycerol O-Acyltransferase
An enzyme that catalyses the last step of the TRIACYLGLYCEROL synthesis reaction in which diacylglycerol is covalently joined to LONG-CHAIN ACYL COA to form triglyceride. It was formerly categorized as EC 2.3.1.124.
Year introduced: 2006(1980)
Diacylglycerol Kinase
An enzyme of the transferase class that uses ATP to catalyze the phosphorylation of diacylglycerol to a phosphatidate. EC 2.7.1.107.
Year introduced: 1998
Ethanolaminephosphotransferase
An enzyme that catalyzes reversibly the transfer of phosphoethanolamine from CDP-ethanolamine to diacylglycerol to yield phosphatidylethanolamine (cephalin) and CMP. The enzyme is found in the endoplasmic reticulum. EC 2.7.8.1.
Year introduced: 1991(1979)
1,2-diacylglycerol 3-glucosyltransferase [Supplementary Concept]
catalyzes the transfer of glucose from UDP glucose to diacylglycerol (DAG) to yield monoglucosyldiacylglycerol (MGlcDAG) and UDP
Date introduced: February 10, 1997
1,2-diacylglycerol 3-beta-galactosyltransferase [Supplementary Concept]
consider also EC 2.3.1.141 which transfers an acyl group to lysomonogalactosyldiacylglycerol; amino acid sequence has been determined
Date introduced: February 2, 1998
sqdD protein, Rhodobacter sphaeroides [Supplementary Concept]
catalyzes the final step in the synthesis of nucleoside 5'-diphospho-sulfoquinovoses
Date introduced: November 16, 1989
1,2-diacylglycerol [Supplementary Concept]
Date introduced: January 1, 1976
6'-O-(3''-phosphocholine-2''-aminio-1'-phospho-1'',3''-propanediol)-glucopyranosyl-(1'-3')-1,2-diacylglycerol [Supplementary Concept]
a membrane lipid isolated from Mycoplasma fermentans
Date introduced: August 24, 2001
Diacylglycerol Cholinephosphotransferase
An enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of phosphatidylcholines from CDPcholine and 1,2-diacylglycerols. EC 2.7.8.2.
Year introduced: 1994(1975)
