Glycerophosphate/Acylglycerophosphate Acyltransferases [PDF]
Acyl-CoA:glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase (GPAT) and acyl-CoA: 1-acyl-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase (AGPAT) are involved in the de novo synthesis of triacylglycerol (TAG) and glycerophospholipids.

The Structure and Function of Acylglycerophosphate Acyltransferase 4/ Lysophosphatidic Acid Acyltransferase Delta (AGPAT4/LPAATδ) [PDF]
Lipid-modifying enzymes serve crucial roles in cellular processes such as signal transduction (producing lipid-derived second messengers), intracellular membrane transport (facilitating membrane remodeling needed for membrane fusion/fission), and protein

Membrane Topology of Hedgehog Acyltransferase* [PDF]
Background: Hedgehog acyltransferase (Hhat) transfers palmitate onto Sonic Hedgehog, which is required for efficient signaling. Results: Hhat membrane topology was determined using in silico and empirical methods.

The plasma lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase reaction
Evidence for the existence of a plasma lecithin: cholesterol acyltransferase is reviewed with emphasis not only on the lipid reactants, but also on the lipoprotein “substrates” and “products.” The cholesteryl esters of all major lipoprotein classes ...

Structure, mechanism, and inhibition of Hedgehog acyltransferase [PDF]
The Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) morphogen pathway is fundamental for embryonic development and stem cell maintenance and is implicated in various cancers. A key step in signaling is transfer of a palmitate group to the SHH N terminus, catalyzed by the multi-pass transmembrane enzyme Hedgehog acyltransferase (HHAT).

Acyltransferases in Bacteria [PDF]
SUMMARY Long-chain-length hydrophobic acyl residues play a vital role in a multitude of essential biological structures and processes. They build the inner hydrophobic layers of biological membranes, are converted to intracellular storage compounds, and are used to modify protein properties or function as membrane anchors, to name only a few ...

The zDHHC family of S-acyltransferases [PDF]
The discovery of the zDHHC family of S-acyltransferase enzymes has been one of the major breakthroughs in the S-acylation field. Now, more than a decade since their discovery, major questions centre on profiling the substrates of individual zDHHC enzymes (there are 24 ZDHHC genes and several hundred S-acylated proteins), defining the mechanisms of ...

Corramycin ist ein neuer Naturstoff, welcher von dem Myxobakterium Corallococcus coralloides produziert wird. Seine Struktur sowie die außergewöhnliche Total‐ und Biosynthese des Antibiotikums werden hier zum ersten Mal beschrieben. Corramycin zeigt keine Zytotoxizität und keine Kreuzresistenz mit gängigen Antibiotikaklassen.
