Specifications
Target Information
Diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 1 (DGAT1) catalyzes the final and only committed step in triacylglycerol synthesis, utilizing diacylglycerol and fatty acyl CoA as substrates. It is predominantly expressed in the epithelial cells of the small intestine, where its activity is crucial for the absorption of dietary fats. In mice, DGAT1 is highly expressed in adipose tissue, and its deletion (DGAT1-/-) results in a significant reduction in triglyceride levels in adipose tissue, conferring resistance to diet-induced obesity and hyperlipidemia. DGAT1-/- mice maintain metabolic balance by increasing energy expenditure and enhancing insulin sensitivity.
