Natural variation in C. elegans arsenic toxicity is explained by differences in branched chain amino acid metabolism

open access: yeseLife, 2019
We find that variation in the dbt-1 gene underlies natural differences in Caenorhabditis elegans responses to the toxin arsenic. This gene encodes the E2 subunit of the branched-chain α-keto acid dehydrogenase (BCKDH) complex, a core component of ...

A comparative study of straight chain and branched chain fatty acid oxidation in skin fibroblasts from patients with peroxisomal disorders.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1990
The beta-oxidation of stearic acid and of alpha- and gamma-methyl isoprenoid-derived fatty acids (pristanic and tetramethylheptadecanoic acids, respectively) was investigated in normal skin fibroblasts and in fibroblasts from patients with inherited ...

A Closed‐Loop Recyclable Low‐Density Polyethylene

open access: yesAdvanced Science
Low‐density polyethylene (LDPE) is one of the most important plastics, which is produced unfortunately under extreme conditions. In addition, it consists of robust aliphatic C─C bonds which are challenging to cleave for plastic recycling.

Peroxisomal beta-oxidation of branched chain fatty acids in human skin fibroblasts.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1992
Human skin fibroblasts in suspension are able to degrade [1-14C]-labeled alpha- and gamma-methyl branched chain fatty acids such as pristanic and homophytanic acid.

Branched-chain fatty acids in lipids of the newly born lamb

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1964
The fatty acid compositions of the lipids of wool, carcass, liver, brain, and perirenal fat of two newly born lambs have been determined. The fatty acids from the lipids of carcass and internal organs of the lambs contained 0.2% of branched-chain acids ...

Further studies on the substrate spectrum of phytanoyl-CoA hydroxylase

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2003
Refsum disease is a peroxisomal disorder characterized by adult-onset retinitis pigmentosa, anosmia, sensory neuropathy, ataxia, and an accumulation of phytanic acid in plasma and tissues.

Effect of Supplementation of Branched Chain Fatty Acid on Colony of Ruminal Bacteria and Cell of Protozoa

open access: yesAnimal Production: Indonesian Journal of Animal Production, 2009
A study was conducted to evaluate the potential of branched-chain volatile fatty acids (isobutyric, α-methylbutyric and β-methylbutiric) that supplemented into the diet on the colony of ruminal bacteria and the cell of protozoa population.

Caprylic Acid Restores Branched-Chain Amino Acid Metabolism in a Mouse Cachexia Model

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Molecular Biology
Cancer-associated sarcopenia is closely linked to the prognosis of cancer patients, making its management a critical aspect of cancer treatment. Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) are known to promote skeletal muscle growth in healthy individuals ...
