comparison of the substrate specificities of enzymes from different species, positional analysis of fatty acids in seed oil and tiacylglycerols, overview
the enzyme shows a preference for acylating long-chain fatty acids. Substrate specificity is evaluated with 18:1- or 22:6-LPA, and 18:3-, 20:5-, 22:5-, 22:6-CoAs. Mortierella alpina LPAAT has the highest substrate specificity for accumulating DHA onto oleoyl-lysophosphatidic acid (oleoyl-LPA), while the plant LPAATs tested show lower preference for docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).

differences in the expression of the two genes emcoding the two microsomal LPAAT isozymes, one is detected in all rapeseed tissues and during silique and seed development, whereas the expression of the second gene is restricted predominantly to siliques and developing seeds

LPAAT is located in the cytoplasmic endomembrane compartment, two microsomal LPAAT isozymes are identified. Diversity of LPAAT microsomal isozymes in rapeseed, overview
the mutant fails to grow beyond 0.04 D600 after transfer to the non-permissive temperature. D199 is essential for the ability of the plastidial enzyme to complement the defective acyltransferase activity of JC201
the plastidial enzyme containing this mutation is unable to complement the temperature-sensitive phenotype of JC201, indicating an essential role for this acidic residue

genes BAT1.13 and BAT1.5, cloning of two cDNAs encoding microsomal isozymes from an immature embryo library, sequence comparisons, functional expression of the two rapeseed microsomal LPAAT isozymes in Arabidopsis thaliana, using Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain C58C1 transfection, leading to enhanced oil content and seed weight, tissue localization study, overview. Complementationof a thermosensitive Escherichia coli strain JC201 by expression of Bat1.5 and BAT1.13, overview
isolation of a cDNA encoding an enzyme by functional complementation of the Escherichia coli mutant plsC with an immature embryo cDNA library of oilseed rape. Transformation of the acyltransferase-deficient Escherichia coli strain JC201 with the cDNA sequence BAT2 alleviates the temperature-sensitive phenotype of the plsC mutant and confers a palmitoyl-CoA-preferring enzyme activity to membrane fractions. Mapping of the BAT2 genes and sequence analysis of the BAT2 cDNA clone
transformation of a modified plasmid into Escherichia coli JC201 enzyme-deficient strain and transformation of the plasmid DNA containing the cDNA BAT2 encoding the plastidial enzyme into the Escherichia coli XL-1 red mutator strain
