Three Enzymes, GPAT, LPAT and DGAT, determine the TAG structure in the TAG biosynthetic pathway. G3P glycerol-3-phosphate, LPA lysophosphatidic acid, PA phosphatidic acid, DAG diacylglycerol, TAG triacylglycerol, GPAT glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase, LPAT lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase, DGAT acyl-CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase, PDAT phospholipid:diacylglycerol acyltransferase. SCT1 and GPT2 are GPAT genes, SLC1 and ALE1 are LPAT genes, DGA1 is the DGAT gene, LRO1 is the PDAT gene. The genes in red were deleted in some of the yeast strains used in this study
