Diacylglycerol acyltransferase in a particulate preparation from maturing safflower seeds showed no strict selectivity for acyl-CoA when acyl-CoA substrates were administered as mixtures. This suggested that the fatty acid composition of position 3 in safflower triacyl-sn-glycerol exclusively depends on the acyl-CoA composition in the cell. The specific activity of the acylation was approximately 3 nmol/min per mg protein of the preparation under the optimum assay conditions. This low activity and other data appeared to indicate that the diacylglycerol acyltransferase reaction may be the rate-limiting step in triacylglycerol synthesis in vivo.
