Identification of an SCPL Gene Controlling Anthocyanin Acylation in Carrot (Daucus carota L.) Root

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Anthocyanins are natural health promoting pigments that can be produced in large quantities in some purple carrot cultivars. Decoration patterns of anthocyanins, such as acylation, can greatly influence their stability and biological properties and use ...

Hepatic CBP/p300 Orchestrate Amino Acid‐Driven Gluconeogenesis through Histone Crotonylation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Hepatic CBP/p300 control amino acid‐driven gluconeogenesis by modulating histone crotonylation. This study identifies 2‐aminoadipate (2‐AAA) as a key metabolite that enhances crotonylation and activates amino acid and gluconeogenic gene expression.

Acyltransferases Regulate Oil Quality in Camelina sativa Through Both Acyl Donor and Acyl Acceptor Specificities

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Camelina sativa is an emerging biotechnology oil crop. However, more information is needed regarding its innate lipid enzyme specificities. We have therefore characterized several triacylglycerol (TAG) producing enzymes by measuring in vitro substrate ...

Evaluation of polygenic determinants of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) by a candidate genes resequencing strategy [PDF]

, 2018
NAFLD is a polygenic condition but the individual and cumulative contribution of identified genes remains to be established. To get additional insight into the genetic architecture of NAFLD, GWAS-identified GCKR, PPP1R3B, NCAN, LYPLAL1 and TM6SF2 genes ...

POSTN‐Mediated Interplay of M1 Polarized Macrophage with Tendon‐Derived Stem Cells to Drive Traumatic Heterotopic Ossification Formation through PTK7/ATK Signaling?

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The mechanism diagram reveals that the formation of trauma‐induced heterotopic ossification (HO) is accompanied by the polarization of macrophages toward the M1 phenotype. Additionally, the extracellular vesicles secreted by M1 macrophages, which contain periostin (POSTN), directly bind to PTK7 in tendon‐derived stem cells (TDSCs).

Reprogramming Hansenula polymorpha for penicillin production: expression of the Penicillium chrysogenum pcl gene [PDF]

, 2007
We aim to introduce the penicillin biosynthetic pathway into the methylotrophic yeast Hansenula polymorpha. To allow simultaneous expression of the multiple genes of the penicillin biosynthetic pathway, additional markers were required.

Xylose Metabolism Perturbation in Yarrowia lipolytica for Efficient Succinic Acid Bioproduction from Lignocellulosic Biomass

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study engineers Yarrowia lipolytica to produce succinic acid (SA) from lignocellulosic biomass. Adaptive evolution and multi‐omics analysis identify regulators that alleviate xylose metabolic disorder. Multi‐copy integration of xylose metabolic genes resolves redox imbalances from a futile fatty acid cycle, producing high‐titer SA from corn stover

A novel pathway for lipid biosynthesis: the direct acylation of glycerol

Journal of Lipid Research, 2001
The acylation of glycerol-3-phosphate by acyl-CoA is regarded as the first committed step for the synthesis of the lipoidal moiety in glycerolipids. The direct acylation of glycerol in mammalian tissues has not been demonstrated.

Pretransplant assessment of human liver grafts by plasma lecithin: cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) activity in multiple organ donors. [PDF]

, 1992
In spite of the improved outcome of orthotopic liver transplantation (OLTx), primary graft nonfunction remains one of the life-threatening problems following OLTx.

Lactate Dehydrogenase C4 Accelerates Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer Progression by Promoting Acetyl‐CoA Acyltransferase 2 Lactylation to Increase Free Fatty Acid Accumulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Diagram of the reprogramming of FA metabolism mediated by LDHC4‐induced ACAA2 activity to promote TNBC progression. LDHC4 drives TNBC progression by enhancing ACAA2‐mediated fatty acid production. The resulting accumulation of FFAs stimulates autophagy and accelerates cell cycle progression, thereby promoting tumor growth.
