In
enzymology, a phospholipid:diacylglycerol acyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.158) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- phospholipid + 1,2-diacylglycerol lysophospholipid + triacylglycerol
Thus, the two
triacylglycerol
.
This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those acyltransferases transferring groups other than aminoacyl groups. The systematic name of this enzyme class is phospholipid:1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol O-acyltransferase. This enzyme is also called PDAT. This enzyme participates in glycerolipid metabolism.
An important human protein from this family is lecithin–cholesterol acyltransferase.
