Update on glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferases: the roles in the development of insulin resistance
Nutrition & Diabetes, 2018 Glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase (GPAT) is the rate-limiting enzyme in the de novo pathway of glycerolipid synthesis. It catalyzes the conversion of glycerol-3-phosphate and long-chain acyl-CoA to lysophosphatidic acid.

The NADPH oxidase NOX4 regulates redox and metabolic homeostasis preventing HCC progression
Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022 Loss of NOX4 in HCC tumor cells induces metabolic reprogramming in a Nrf2/MYC‐dependent manner to promote HCC progression. Abstract Background and Aims The NADPH oxidase NOX4 plays a tumor‐suppressor function in HCC. Silencing NOX4 confers higher proliferative and migratory capacity to HCC cells and increases their in vivo tumorigenic potential in ...

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Lsd18 is a flavin‐dependent monooxygenase from Streptomyces lasalocidi that performs two enantioselective epoxidations during lasalocid A biosynthesis. X‐ray crystal structures of Lsd18 bound to a substrate and product analogue illuminate how this enzyme performs multiple epoxidations on the same substrate molecule and how it controls stereoselectivity.

Acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferases [PDF]
American Journal of Physiology-Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2009 The enzymes acyl-coenzyme A (CoA):cholesterol acyltransferases (ACATs) are membrane-bound proteins that utilize long-chain fatty acyl-CoA and cholesterol as substrates to form cholesteryl esters. In mammals, two isoenzymes, ACAT1 and ACAT2, encoded by two different genes, exist.

Animal-associated marine Acidobacteria with a rich natural product repertoire [PDF]
Chem, 9 (12), 2023, pp. 3696-3713Sponges have long been recognized as a rich source of bioactive natural products. Various studies suggest that many of these compounds are produced by symbiotic bacteria. However, substance supplies and functional insights about the producers remain limited because cultivation remains unsuccessful. To identify alternative, sustainable sources of sponge-
