    • 2016 January 9, “Reassessing the Potential Activities of Plant CGI-58 Protein”, in PLOS ONE[1], →DOI:
      Recombinant plant and mouse CGI-58 both lack acyltransferase activity towards either lysophosphatidylglycerol or lysophosphatidic acid to form phosphatidylglycerol or phosphatidic acid and recombinant plant CGI-58 does not catalyze TAG or phospholipid hydrolysis.
