    Also known as
    ABX45; acyl-CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase 1; Arabidopsis thaliana acyl-CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase; AS11; ATDGAT; AtDGAT1; DGAT1; DIACYLGLYCEROL ACYLTRANSFERASE; F27F23.24; RDS1; TRIACYLGLYCEROL BIOSYNTHESIS DEFECT 1
    Summary
    Encodes Acyl-CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) catalyzes the final step of the triacylglycerol synthesis pathway. An insertion mutation in the TAG1 gene results in altered lipid phenotype. Role in senescence and seed development. Its preferred substrate is linolenoyl-CoA (C18:3-CoA).
