Novel acyl-coenzyme A:monoacylglycerol acyltransferase plays an important role in hepatic triacylglycerol secretion

Acyl-CoA:monoacylglycerol acyltransferase (MGAT) plays a predominant role in the resynthesis of triacylglycerol in the small intestine, but its contribution to triacylglycerol synthesis in other tissues, such as the liver, is not clear. In this study, we identified a novel MGAT gene, which is identi...
