Pyruvate dehydrogenase : its structure, function and interactions within the pyruvate dehydrogenase multienzyme complex [PDF]

, 2002
Pyruvate dehydrogenase multi-enzyme complex (PDHC) is member of a family of multienzyme complexes that catalyse the irreversible decarboxylation of various 2-oxoacid substrates to their corresponding acyl-CoA derivatives, NADH and C02.

Alkyl-dihydroxyacetone phosphate synthase and dihydroxyacetone phosphate acyltransferase form a protein complex in peroxisomes [PDF]

, 1999
Dihydroxyacetone phosphate (GrnP) acyltransferase and alkyl-GrnP synthase are the key enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of ether phospholipids. Both enzymes are located on the inside of the peroxisomal membrane.

Acylation of sn-glycerol 3-phosphate by cell fractions of rat liver

Journal of Lipid Research, 1968
The esterification of sn-glycerol 3-(dihydrogen phosphate) with long-chain fatty acids by rat liver microsomal preparations has been studied. A newly modified spectrophotometric assay for glycerolphosphate acyltransferase (GP-cyltransferase) compared ...

Dapagliflozin alleviates high‐fat‐induced obesity cardiomyopathy by inhibiting ferroptosis

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1358-1373, April 2025.
Abstract Aim: Dapagliflozin (Dapa) is a novel hypoglycaemic agent with multiple cardiovascular protective effects, and it is widely used in treatment of heart failure patients, but whether it can improve obese phenotype of heart failure and its mechanism is still unclear.

Neurolathyrism in Sub‐Saharan Africa—Assessing the Neurotoxic Risks of Lathyrus sativus Amid Drought and Food Security Challenges

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Representation of grass pea consumption in drought‐stricken sub‐Saharan Africa sustains nutrition, but excess β‐ODAP exposure due to multiple reasons triggers neurolathyrism, a progressive neurotoxic disorder. ABSTRACT Neurolathyrism is a progressive motor neuron disease due to the consumption of Lathyrus sativus (grass pea) over long periods.

Novel Dual-Functional Enzyme Lip10 Catalyzes Lipase and Acyltransferase Activities in the Oleaginous Fungus Mucor circinelloides [PDF]

, 2019
Lipases or triacylglycerol (TAG) lipases belong to the α/β-hydrolases superfamily, which are enzymes capable of catalyzing the hydrolysis of the ester bond between fatty acids and glycerol.

Identification of Three Genes Encoding for the Late Acyltransferases of Lipid A in Cronobacter sakazakii

Marine Drugs, 2013
Lipid A, the hydrophobic anchor of lipopolysaccharide, is an essential component in the outer membrane of most Gram-negative bacteria. Food-borne pathogen Cronobacter sakazakii synthesizes two lipid A species, differing by the length of the secondary ...

Seed lipid profiles of perennial ryegrass: Global patterns and differentiation of ryegrass cultivars and Epichloë endophytes

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Seed lipid profiles from three ryegrass cultivars infected with AR501 show distinct changes in the medium‐chain diacylglycerols, triacylglycerols and sphingolipids. The differential peal LN745.5052_5.78 can be identified as PG 16:0_18:2 with the supporting ms2 fragmentation spectrum. Abstract Background Forage perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) has
