Identification and characterization of an acyl-CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase 2 (DGAT2) gene from the microalga O. tauri

In order to identify novel genes encoding enzymes involved in the terminal step of triacylglycerol (TAG) formation, a database search was carried out in the genome of the unicellular photoautotrophic green alga Ostreococcus tauri. The search led to the identification of three putative type 2 acyl-Co...
