1. 1. The extent to which the pattern of fatty acids synthesised by fatty acid synthetase from rabbit mammary gland could be modified by acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA concentrations was examined and the results compared with the composition of rabbit milk triglycerides, which contain a high proportion of medium-chain fatty acids. 2. 2. Evidence for

Fatty acid biosynthesis and membrane lipid formation represent major metabolic energy commitments for growing bacterial cells. Some prokaryotic organisms are capable of incorporating exogenous fatty acids into their membranes; however, extracellular fatty acids are not incorporated into lipopolysaccharide acyl moieties in gram-negative bacteria ...

Fatty Acid Biosynthesis during Brain Development
1978The role of fatty acids in membrane structure is very important; this is particularly true in brain where two highly differentiated membranes are operative: myelin and nerve endings. The former contains 10 times as much long chain sphingolipids as any other known structure: very long chain saturated and mono-unsaturated fatty acids are concentrated in ...

Dietary Essential Fatty Acids, Brain Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids, and Prostaglandin Biosynthesis
1977The adult brain contains high levels of polyenoic fatty acids deriving from linoleic (18:2 Δ9,12 n — 6) and from linolenic acid (18:3 Δ9,12,15 n — 3). The two major polyunsaturated fatty acids (Pufa) present in brain are arachidonic acid (20:4 Δ5,8,11,14) of the linoleic acid series and especially docosahexaenoic acid (22:6 Δ4,7,10,13,16,19) of the ...

Fatty acid biosynthesis by avocado pear
Lipids, 1974AbstractFatty acid synthesis in the avocado (Persea americana) mesocarp is due to three immunologically distinct enzyme systems. The plastid membranes synthesize a mixture of palmitic, stearic, and oleic acids. The plastid stroma, on the other hand, contains only palmitate elongase and cytoplasm only fatty acid synthetase.

New advances in fatty-acid biosynthesis
Nutrition, 1996When [1-14C]7,10,13,16,19-22:5 was incubated with microsomes, it was not desaturated to 4,7,10,13,16,19-22:6 by an acyl-CoA-dependent 4-desaturase. Subsequent studies with rat hepatocytes showed that 7,10,13,16, 19-22:5 was the precursor of 4,7,10,13,16,19-22:6, but the pathway proceeded through 24-carbon fatty acids. The implication of this finding is

Fatty acid structural requirements for leukotriene biosynthesis
Prostaglandins, 1980Utilizing a variety of fatty acids, differing in chain length, degree and position of unsaturation, we investigated the substrate specificity for the enzymatic production of biologically active slow reacting substances (SRS) and of the other leukotrienes. A cell-free enzyme system obtained from RBL-1 cells was used in this study. The primary structural

De Novo Fatty Acid Biosynthesis
2018This chapter provides an overview of current knowledge on fatty acid biosynthesis, including the source of carbon, the enzymes of synthesis and termination, and their regulation. Fatty acids are assembled by sequential additions of two carbon units which are derived from acetate.

Biosynthesis of iso-fatty acids in myxobacteria
Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry, 2005The fatty acid (FA) profiles of the myxobacteria Stigmatella aurantiaca and Myxococcus xanthus were investigated by acidic methanolysis of total cell extracts and GC or GC-MS analysis. The main components were 13-methyltetradecanoic acid (iso-15:0) and (Z)-hexadec-11-enoic acid (16:1, omega-5 cis).
