Agpat4/Lpaat delta deficiency highlights the molecular heterogeneity of epididymal and perirenal white adipose depots
Mardian, Emily B.; Bradley, Ryan M.; Henao, Juan J. Aristizabal; Marvyn, Phillip M.; Moes, Katherine A.; Bombardier, Eric; Tupling, A. Russell; Stark, Ken; Duncan, Robin E. (American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2017-10-01)Acylglycerophosphate acyltransferase 4 (AGPAT4)/lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase delta catalyzes the formation of phosphatidic acid (PA), a precursor of triacylglycerol (TAG). We investigated the effect of Agpat4 gene ... -
Characterization of the critical biochemical and physiological role of 1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate-O-acyltransferase 4 (AGPAT4) in white adipose tissue
Mardian, Emily B. (University of Waterloo, 2016-08-18)White adipose tissue (WAT) is an endocrine and lipid storage organ that is imperative to mammals for the maintenance of energy homeostasis. WAT depot size and triacylglycerol (TAG) content is determined by the regulation ...
