Aldehydes: magnificent acyl equivalents for direct acylation [PDF]
This review sheds light on the use of aldehydes in the selective acylation of arene, heteroarene and alkyl (sp3, sp2and sp) C–H bonds by proficient utilization of the C–H activation strategy.

Detection of S-Acylated CD95 by Acyl-Biotin Exchange [PDF]
S-acylation is the covalent addition of a fatty acid, most generally palmitate onto cysteine residues of proteins through a labile thioester linkage. The death receptor CD95 is S-palmitoylated and this post-translational modification plays a crucial role on CD95 organization in cellular membranes and thus on CD95-mediated signaling.

Acyl lipids in Arabidopsis and all other plants have a myriad of diverse functions. These include providing the core diffusion barrier of the membranes that separates cells and subcellular organelles. This function alone involves more than 10 membrane lipid classes, including the phospholipids, galactolipids, and sphingolipids, and within each class ...

Acylation of glycerolipids in mycobacteria
AbstractWe report on the existence of two phosphatidic acid biosynthetic pathways in mycobacteria, a classical one wherein the acylation of the sn-1 position of glycerol-3-phosphate (G3P) precedes that of sn-2 and another wherein acylations proceed in the reverse order.

Versatility of Acyl-Acyl Carrier Protein Synthetases
The acyl carrier protein (ACP) requires posttranslational modification with a 4'-phosphopantetheine arm for activity, and this thiol-terminated modification carries cargo between enzymes in ACP-dependent metabolic pathways. We show that acyl-ACP synthetases (AasSs) from different organisms are able to load even, odd, and unnatural fatty acids onto E ...

An engineered Tetrahymena tRNA(Gln) for in vivo incorporation of unnatural amino acids into proteins by nonsense suppression [PDF]
A new tRNA, THG73, has been designed and evaluated as a vehicle for incorporating unnatural amino acids site-specifically into proteins expressed in vivo using the stop codon suppression technique.

A Receptor Component of the Chloroplast Protein Translocation Machinery [PDF]
The chloroplast outer envelope protein OEP86 functions as a receptor in precursor protein translocation into chloroplasts. Sequence analysis suggests that the precursor of OEP86 is directed to the chloroplast outer envelope by a cleavable, negatively ...

A broad inhibitor of acyl-acyl carrier protein synthetases
The acyl-acyl carrier protein synthetase enzyme enables some bacteria to scavenge free fatty acids from the environment for direct use in lipids. This fatty acid recycling pathway can help pathogens circumvent fatty acid synthase (FAS) inhibition with established antibiotics and those in clinical development.

Acylated and non-acylated anthocyanins as antibacterial and antibiofilm agents
AbstractNatural products have served as an essential source of medicinal compounds in drug discovery, with their high abundance in nature and structural complexity being beneficial for various biological activities. Anthocyanins are a natural food colourant that belongs to the flavonoid group of compounds responsible for the colour of various fruits ...
