A model for how CrLIP1 might affect TAG metabolism. The DAG lipase activity of CrLIP1 may affect TAG biogenesis and hydrolysis in yeast and Chlamydomonas, respectively. Enzymes are italicized. Note that the model stresses components directly related to CrLIP1 overexpression or knockdown. Not all enzymes or metabolites are shown. Abbreviations for enzymes and lipids: ACP, acyl carrier protein; DGAT, diacylglycerol acyltransferase; DGK, diacylglycerol kinase; G-3-P, glycerol-3-phosphate; PLC, phospholipase C; PLD, phospholipase D; PtdOH, phosphatidic acid; TAGL, triacylglycerol lipase.
