The Role of Triacylglycerol in Plant Stress Response

Plants, 2020
Vegetable oil is mainly composed of triacylglycerol (TAG), a storage lipid that serves as a major commodity for food and industrial purposes, as well as an alternative biofuel source.

Air-drying of cells, the novel conditions for stimulated synthesis of triacylglycerol in a Green Alga, Chlorella kessleri. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Triacylglycerol is used for the production of commodities including food oils and biodiesel fuel. Microalgae can accumulate triacylglycerol under adverse environmental conditions such as nitrogen-starvation.

Shotgun-Based Mass Spectrometry Analysis of Phospholipid and Triacylglycerol Molecular Species and Eicosanoids in Salmon Muscle Tissue on Feeding Microbial Oil

Marine Drugs, 2023
The continuous growth of aquaculture places a growing demand on alternative sources of fish oil (FO). Certain microorganisms provide a sustainable replacement for FO due to their content of EPA and DHA, which are essential for fish health.

Characterization of a Haematococcus pluvialis Diacylglycerol Acyltransferase 1 and Its Potential in Unsaturated Fatty Acid-Rich Triacylglycerol Production

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The unicellular green alga Haematococcus pluvialis has been recognized as an industry strain to produce simultaneously esterified astaxanthin (EAST) and triacylglycerol (TAG) under stress induction.

Triacylglycerol synthesis enhances macrophage inflammatory function

Nature Communications, 2020
Foamy macrophages, which have prominent lipid droplets (LDs), are found in a variety of disease states. Toll-like receptor agonists drive triacylglycerol (TG)-rich LD development in macrophages. Here we explore the basis and significance of this process.

A Lipid Bodies-Associated Galactosyl Hydrolase Is Involved in Triacylglycerol Biosynthesis and Galactolipid Turnover in the Unicellular Green Alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

Plants, 2021
Monogalactosyldiacylglycerol (MGDG) and digalactosyldiacylglycerol (DGDG) are the main constituent lipids of thylakoid and chloroplast envelop membranes.

Triacylglycerol and phytyl ester synthesis in Synechocystis sp. PCC6803

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020
Significance Cyanobacteria harbor a photosynthetic apparatus related to plant chloroplasts. The lipid compositions of the thylakoids that harbor the photosynthetic complexes in cyanobacteria and chloroplasts are highly similar.
