A Novel High-Throughput Assay Enables the Direct Identification of Acyltransferases

open access: yesCatalysts, 2019
Acyltransferases are enzymes that are capable of catalyzing the transesterification of non-activated esters in an aqueous environment and therefore represent interesting catalysts for applications in various fields.

Acidosis Forces Fatty Acid Uptake and Metabolism in Cancer Cells Regardless of Genotype

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that biological acidosis, commonly observed in tumors and ischemic conditions, actively promotes the protonation of fatty acids, thereby facilitating the uptake of their neutral forms. Consequently, the preference for lipid metabolism in acid‐exposed cells does not arise from genetic reprogramming that prioritizes lipids as the ...

Intestinal triacylglycerol synthesis in fat absorption and systemic energy metabolism

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2015
The intestine plays a prominent role in the biosynthesis of triacylglycerol (triglyceride; TAG). Digested dietary TAG is repackaged in the intestine to form the hydrophobic core of chylomicrons, which deliver metabolic fuels, essential fatty acids, and ...

Study of the transfer of phospholipids from the endoplasmic reticulum to the outer and inner mitochondrial membranes

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1971
Isolated mitochondria cannot synthesize their own phospholipids, there is only an exchange between exogenous and mitochondrial phospholipid fatty acids.

Structured Lipids: Synthesis, Genetic Engineering, and Applications

open access: yesJournal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lipids are essential to the human body, but some can be harmful. As a result, current research focuses on structured lipids (SLs), which are engineered to have specific fatty acid arrangements. These structural modifications can enhance both nutritional and physical properties.

Characterization of type 2 diacylglycerol acyltransferases in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii reveals their distinct substrate specificities and functions in triacylglycerol biosynthesis.

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, 2016
Diacylglycerol acyltransferases (DGATs) catalyze a rate-limiting step of triacylglycerol (TAG) biosynthesis in higher plants and yeast. The genome of the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii has multiple genes encoding type 2 DGATs (DGTTs).

Dual Functions of Dietary Rubber Seed Oil Supplementation: Enriching N‐3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids and Enhancing Antioxidant Capacity in Pekin Ducks

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Dietary RSO supplementation improved growth performance, simultaneously enriched n‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n‐3 PUFA), and enhanced antioxidant capacity in Pekin ducks, which suggested that RSO has the potential to be a novel n‐3 PUFA source and an antioxidant for Pekin ducks to generate animal functional foods.

Occurrence of land-plant-specific glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferases is essential for cuticle formation and gametophore development in Physcomitrella patens.

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2019
During the evolution of land plants from aquatic to terrestrial environments, their aerial surfaces were surrounded by cuticle composed of cutin and cuticular waxes to protect them from environmental stresses.

Compensation Response to Hepatic Gluconeogenesis via β‐Hydroxybutyrylation of FBP1 and PCK1 in Dairy Cows

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
(1) Kbhb modification of FBP1 and PCK1 is involved in regulation of the gluconeogenesis pathway. (2) Kbhb of FBP1 and PCK1 is catalyzed by p300 and removed by HDACs. (3) BHB induced an increase in the enzymatic activity of FBP1 and PCK1 through Kbhb modification at the K43 site of FBP1 and the K191 site of PCK1.

Exploring the Roles of Tuna‐Associated Acinetobacter sp. YFT067: Implications for Host Health and Metabolism

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
This study firstly isolated a tuna‐derived gut probiotic Acinetobacter seifertii YFT067. Dietary administration of YFT067 played significant roles in promoting growth performance, SCFAs production, lipid absorption, and metabolism of the host, indicating YFT067 as a promising probiotic candidate for enhancing tuna aquaculture productivity through ...
