Synthesis and properties of lipoamino acid/fatty acid mixtures. Influence of the amphiphilic structure. [PDF]
, 2009 The acylation of amino acids by acid chlorides with from 8 to 12 carbon atoms, in alkaline aqueous medium following Shotten-Baumann reaction, results in sodium salts of Nα-acylamino acids and fatty acids mixture. These lastest are present in proportion

SIRT6 regulates Ras-related protein R-Ras2 by lysine defatty-acylation
eLife, 2017 The Ras family of GTPases are important in cell signaling and frequently mutated in human tumors. Understanding their regulation is thus important for studying biology and human diseases.

Lipase catalysed kinetic resolution of racemic 1,2-diols containing a chiral quaternary center [PDF]
, 2018 Optically active 1,2-diols are valuable buildings blocks in organic synthesis. In the present paper, a set of racemic 1,2-diols with an ester functional group are prepared, starting from -ketoesters in a three-step procedure with moderate yields.

ATP-independent Control of Vac8 Palmitoylation by a SNARE Subcomplex on Yeast Vacuoles [PDF]
, 2005 Yeast vacuole fusion requires palmitoylated Vac8. We previously showed that Vac8 acylation occurs early in the fusion reaction, is blocked by antibodies against Sec18 (yeast N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion protein (NSF)), and is mediated by the R-SNARE

Acylation, a Conductor of Ghrelin Function in Brain Health and Disease
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 Acyl-ghrelin (AG) is an orexigenic hormone that has a unique octanoyl modification on its third serine residue. It is often referred to as the “hunger hormone” due to its involvement in stimulating food intake and regulating energy homeostasis.

Bi-acylation of cellulose: determining the relative reactivities of the acetyl and fatty-acyl moieties [PDF]
, 2011 The global reaction between acetic anhydride and a fatty acid yields, at equilibrium, an asymmetric acetic-aliphatic anhydride in a medium containing finally: acetic-fatty anhydride, acetic anhydride, fatty acid, acetic acid and fatty anhydride.

Discovery of Anthocyanin Acyltransferase1 (AAT1) in Maize Using Genotyping-by-Sequencing (GBS)
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2018 The reduced acylation phenotype describes the inability of certain accessions of maize (Zea mays [L.]) to produce significant amounts of acylated anthocyanins, which are typically the most abundant pigments.
