Diacylglycerol ELISA kits are assays designed to detect the compound diacylglycerol (DAG) or related enzymes, such as diacylglycerol transferase (DGAT), diacylglycerol kinase, or diacylglycerol lipase. DAG consists of two fatty acid chains bonded to glycerol molecule through ester linkages. It functions as a secondary messenger and is an activator of protein kinase C. It is also an important intermediate in the biosynthesis of glycerolipids. Visit the supplier page for more information about detection target, range, and reactivity.
