What is the primary function of the enzyme Diacylglycerol Acyltransferase in lipid metabolism?

A To hydrolyze triglycerides into glycerol and fatty acids
B To synthesize triglycerides from diacylglycerol and fatty acyl-CoA ✓
C To oxidize fatty acids to produce acetyl-CoA
D To esterify cholesterol into cholesteryl esters
