| Description | DG(18:0/18:3(9Z,12Z,15Z)/0:0), also known as diacylglycerol or DAG(18:0/18:3), belongs to the class of organic compounds known as lineolic acids and derivatives. These are derivatives of lineolic acid. Lineolic acid is a polyunsaturated omega-6 18 carbon long fatty acid, with two CC double bonds at the 9- and 12-positions. Thus, DG(18:0/18:3(9Z,12Z,15Z)/0:0) is considered to be a diradylglycerol lipid molecule. DG(18:0/18:3(9Z,12Z,15Z)/0:0) is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. DG(18:0/18:3(9Z,12Z,15Z)/0:0) participates in a number of enzymatic reactions, within cattle. In particular, DG(18:0/18:3(9Z,12Z,15Z)/0:0) can be biosynthesized from PA(18:0/18:3(9Z,12Z,15Z)) through its interaction with the enzyme phosphatidate phosphatase. Furthermore, DG(18:0/18:3(9Z,12Z,15Z)/0:0) and eicosadienoyl-CoA can be converted into TG(18:0/18:3(9Z,12Z,15Z)/20:2(11Z,14Z)) through its interaction with the enzyme diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase. Furthermore, DG(18:0/18:3(9Z,12Z,15Z)/0:0) can be biosynthesized from PA(18:0/18:3(9Z,12Z,15Z)); which is mediated by the enzyme phosphatidate phosphatase. Furthermore, DG(18:0/18:3(9Z,12Z,15Z)/0:0) and erucoyl-CoA can be converted into TG(18:0/18:3(9Z,12Z,15Z)/22:1(13Z)) through the action of the enzyme diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase. Furthermore, DG(18:0/18:3(9Z,12Z,15Z)/0:0) can be biosynthesized from PA(18:0/18:3(9Z,12Z,15Z)) through the action of the enzyme phosphatidate phosphatase. Finally, DG(18:0/18:3(9Z,12Z,15Z)/0:0) and docosahexaenoyl-CoA can be converted into TG(18:0/18:3(9Z,12Z,15Z)/22:6(4Z,7Z,10Z,13Z,16Z,19Z)) through its interaction with the enzyme diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase. In cattle, DG(18:0/18:3(9Z,12Z,15Z)/0:0) is involved in a few metabolic pathways, which include de novo triacylglycerol biosynthesis TG(18:0/18:3(9Z,12Z,15Z)/20:2(11Z,14Z)) pathway, de novo triacylglycerol biosynthesis TG(18:0/18:3(9Z,12Z,15Z)/22:1(13Z)) pathway, and de novo triacylglycerol biosynthesis TG(18:0/18:3(9Z,12Z,15Z)/22:6(4Z,7Z,10Z,13Z,16Z,19Z)) pathway. |
