Colocalization of SCD1 and DGAT2: implying preference for endogenous monounsaturated fatty acids in triglyceride synthesis
Stearoyl-coenzyme A desaturase (SCD) is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) protein that catalyzes the Δ9-cis desaturation of saturated fatty acids. Mice with targeted disruption in SCD1 (Scd1−/−) have significant reduction in the tissue content of triglycerides, suggesting that monounsaturated fatty acid...
