Molecular cloning and functional characterization of two glycerol‐3‐phosphate acyltransferases from the green microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

SUMMARY Glycerol‐3‐phosphate acyltransferase (GPAT) catalyzes the first step of both the glycerolipid and the triacylglycerol (TAG) biosynthetic pathways. In plants, there are different isozymes for GPAT in different organelles, including the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane‐bound GPAT and the so...
