Identifying Novel Inhibitors of RpFabG in Typhus-inducing Rickettsia prowazekii [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Epidemic typhus is a rickettsial disease that is contracted via ticks and lice found on the flying squirrel. The disease is caused by Rickettsia prowazekii, an intracellular, gram-negative coccobacillus.

New Insights Into Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) FatA and FatB Thioesterases, Their Regulation, Structure and Distribution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Sunflower seeds (Helianthus annuus L.) accumulate large quantities of triacylglycerols (TAG) between 12 and 28 days after flowering (DAF). This is the period of maximal acyl-acyl carrier protein (acyl-ACP) thioesterase activity in vitro, the enzymes that

The Mitochondrial Carnitine Acyl-carnitine Carrier (SLC25A20): Molecular Mechanisms of Transport, Role in Redox Sensing and Interaction with Drugs

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
The SLC25A20 transporter, also known as carnitine acyl-carnitine carrier (CAC), catalyzes the transport of short, medium and long carbon chain acyl-carnitines across the mitochondrial inner membrane in exchange for carnitine.

Structural classification of biotin carboxyl carrier proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We gathered primary and tertiary structures of acyl-CoA carboxylases from public databases, and established that members of their biotin carboxylase (BC) and biotin carboxyl carrier protein (BCCP) domains occur in one family each and that members of ...

The Nodulation Protein NodG Shows the Enzymatic Activity of an 3-Oxoacyl-Acyl Carrier Protein Reductase

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2001
The acyl carrier protein NodF is required for the synthesis of unusual polyunsaturated fatty acids that confer specificity to lipochitin oligosaccharide nodulation (Nod) factors of Rhizobium leguminosarum. In this study, homogeneous NodF protein was used

High temperature during soybean seed development differentially alters lipid and protein metabolism

open access: yesPlant Production Science, 2020
High temperatures during seed development can affect the seed yield and quality in many crops. Here, we analyzed how high temperature alters the main seed storage compounds (lipid and protein) in soybean. At five days after R5 stage (initial seed filling

Enhanced Rishirilide Biosynthesis by a Rare In-Cluster Phosphopantetheinyl Transferase in Streptomyces xanthophaeus

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2022
Phosphopantetheinyl transferases (PPTases) play important roles in activating apo-acyl carrier proteins (apo-ACPs) and apo-peptidyl carrier proteins (apo-PCPs) in both primary and secondary metabolism. PPTases catalyze the posttranslational modifications

Improving hydrocarbon production by engineering cyanobacterial acyl-(acyl carrier protein) reductase

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2019
Background Acyl-(acyl carrier protein (ACP)) reductase (AAR) is a key enzyme for hydrocarbon biosynthesis in cyanobacteria, reducing fatty acyl-ACPs to aldehydes, which are then converted into hydrocarbons by aldehyde-deformylating oxygenase (ADO ...

ACBP and cholesterol differentially alter fatty acyl CoA utilization by microsomal ACAT

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2003
Microsomal acyl CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase (AC57) is stimulated in vitro and/or in intact cells by proteins that bind and transfer both substrates, cholesterol, and fatty acyl CoA.

Structural insights into catalytic mechanism and product delivery of cyanobacterial acyl-acyl carrier protein reductase

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Acyl-acyl carrier protein reductase (AAR) and aldehyde deformylating oxygenase (ADO) are the two enzymes in a cyanobacterial alkane biosynthesis pathway that is of interest for biofuel production.
