Glycerol phosphate acyltransferase (GPAT) activities were measured in subcellular fractions obtained from rat epididymal adipocytes. These contained both N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive and N-ethylmaleimide-insensitive forms of the enzyme. 2. As shown by parallel measurements of marker enzymes, N-ethylmaleimide-insensitive GPAT is most probably a mitochondrial activity, whereas N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive GPAT is the microsomal enzyme. 3. Subcellular distributions are also reported for dihydroxyacetone phosphate acyltransferase (DHAPAT) (assayed with and without N-ethylmaleimide), monoacylglycerol phosphate acyltransferase (MGPAT) and Mg2+-dependent and Mg2+-independent forms of phosphatidate phosphohydrolase (PPH).
