Control of lecithin biosynthesis in erythrocyte membranes

Journal of Lipid Research, 1968
The detailed relationship between the relative composition of the potential precursor acids, the esterification rates of their CoA thiol ester derivatives, and the relative composition of the fatty acids in the product, lecithin, which was isolated from ...

The zDHHC family of S-acyltransferases [PDF]

Biochemical Society Transactions, 2015
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 ...

Palmitoyl Acyltransferase Zdhhc17 Promotes Functional Recovery After Spinal Cord Injury by Targeting the Nuclear Transport Factors Kpna2 and Ipo9

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, we demonstrate that Zdhhc17, acting as a PAT, suppresses neuronal apoptosis and promotes axon regeneration after injury, thereby enhancing functional recovery following SCI. In this context, Kpna2 and Ipo9 serve as novel palmitoylation substrates of Zdhhc17, whose palmitoylation prevents the injury‐induced degradation of their proteins ...

Recent progress on acyl CoA: lysophospholipid acyltransferase research

Journal of Lipid Research, 2009
Cells of all organisms are enclosed by a plasma membrane containing bipolar lipids, cholesterol, and proteins. Cellular membranes contain several classes of glycerophospholipids, which have numerous structural and functional roles in cells ...

Aspirin‐Derived Salicyl‐CoA Drives Histone Lysine Salicylation Regulated by CBP and SIRT2

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Aspirin‐derived salicyl‐CoA serves as a previously unrecognized acyl donor for protein lysine salicylation. This study identifies histone lysine salicylation as a reversible epigenetic modification regulated by CBP and SIRT2, expanding the biochemical actions of aspirin beyond its canonical acetylation‐dependent mechanisms and providing a new framework

Improving the Physicochemical Properties, Organic Acids, Amino Acids, Volatile Organic Compounds, and Metabolites of Laohan Melon Juice Through Fermentation With Different Lactic Acid Bacteria

AgriFood: Journal of Agricultural Products for Food, EarlyView.
Fermentation with lactic acid bacteria could improve amino acids, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and nonvolatile metabolites of Laohan melon juice (LMJ), which provides theoretical guidance for the development of Laohan melon beverage and advances knowledge of the metabolic mechanisms of VOCs in LMJ.

The microsomal cardiolipin remodeling enzyme acyl-CoA lysocardiolipin acyltransferase is an acyltransferase of multiple anionic lysophospholipids

Journal of Lipid Research, 2009
Phospholipids are subjected to remodeling through the Lands cycle to attain appropriate FA compositions. In recent years, at least two families of lysophospholipid acyltransferases have been identified. Acyl-CoA lysocardiolipin acyltransferase 1 (ALCAT1)

Acyltransferases in plants: a good time to be BAHD

, 2006
Acylation is a common and biochemically significant modification of plant secondary metabolites. Plant BAHD acyltransferases constitute a large family of acyl CoA-utilizing enzymes whose products include small volatile esters, modified anthocyanins ...
