Monoacylmonoalkylglycerol as a substrate for diacylglycerol hydrolase activity in adipose tissue.

The synthesis and use of 1(3)-[3H]oleoyl-2-0-oleylglycerol as a substrate for the assay of diacylglycerol hydrolase activity in adipose tissue is described. Neither the compound nor its reaction product are hydrolyzed by purified adipose tissue monoacylglycerol lipase.
