possessing the third highest
spectral count following MLDP and an a/b hydrolase
(Chlre4/330619, eq. to Cre12.g540550). The presence of
high amount of BTA1 is consistent with the biochemical
finding that DGTS is one of the major membrane lipids
covering the TAG core. This is also in synergy with what
have been found in other model organisms, where PtdCho is
the major polar lipids surrounding the droplet, and the Ptd-
Cho synthesizing enzyme CTP:phosphocholine cytidyltransferase
(CCT) is present in the LD proteome (Guo et al.
2008). The presence of both neutral and polar lipid synthesizing
enzymes point out the essential metabolic co-ordination
that is required when lipid droplets are formed in
response to particular cellular needs.
