Glycerol esterification is a chemical process where glycerol reacts with acetic acid to form various acetylated glycerols, commonly known as acetins. These compounds, including monoacetin ...

Glycerol kinase promotes re-esterification of glycerol and accelerates triglyceride accumulation in adipocytes. AQP7-null mice develop obesity and diabetes accompanied by adipocyte hypertrophy ...

Fats are lipid small molecules generated by esterification between fatty acids and glycerol to generate a triglyceride. Fats are soluble in organic solvents, but insoluble in water. They can be ...
