dc.description.abstract | The biosynthesis of triglyceride from 1,2-diglyceride and long-chain acyl coenzyme A (CoA) was studied in developing rat brain. Diglyceride acyltransferase activity was highest in a microsomal fraction, had a neutral pH optimum, and was stimulated by MgCl 2 . Palmitoyl CoA and oleoyl CoA served equally well as acyl donors. The enzyme catalyzed the acylation of both endogenous diglyceride and several naturally occurring and synthetic exogenous diglycerides. In addition, short-chain primary and secondary alcohols were found to be acylated under these conditions. A second acylation system, active at low pH, was found to catalyze esterification of ethanol and cholesterol, but not diglyceride, with free fatty acid. These results demonstrate that brain has the capacity to acylate a wide variety of physiological and nonphysiological hydroxyl compounds. | en_US |
