Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 1 (gene DGAT1) in human and rat samples and is validated for Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 55.3 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 60 kDa.
DGAT1 (diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 1) is an endoplasmic reticulum enzyme that attaches a fatty acyl-CoA to diacylglycerol, the final committed step of triglyceride synthesis. It is highly active in the small intestine, where it supports absorption of dietary fat, as well as in liver and adipose tissue. DGAT1 is studied in lipid metabolism, obesity and metabolic disease.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL (Human, Rat) |
|---|
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): rat kidney tissue, HeLa cells.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 5–20% gradient SDS-PAGE, transfer to nitrocellulose membrane, blocking in 5% non-fat milk, primary antibody at 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:5000, ECL detection.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide from the middle region of human DGAT1. It differs from the mouse and rat sequences at one residue.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human and rat. UniProt places diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 1 in the endoplasmic reticulum membrane. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
