Introduction
Figure 1. This image shows the location of the DGAT protein within the Endoplasmic Reticulum Membrane
DGAT, or Diacylglycerol Transferase, makes triglycerides from a diglyceride in plasma. DGAT is a polytopic endoplasmic reticulum membrane protein embedded within the membrane of the ER. DGAT is highly expressed in epithelial cells of the small intenstine. It can also be found in the liver, where it helps synthesize fats for storage, and the female mammary glands, where it produces fat in the milk.
