Elucidation of sterol biosynthesis pathway and its co-regulation with fatty acid biosynthesis in the oleaginous marine protist Schizochytrium sp.

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Sterols constitute vital structural and regulatory components of eukaryotic cells. In the oleaginous microorganism Schizochytrium sp. S31, the sterol biosynthetic pathway primarily produces cholesterol, stigmasterol, lanosterol, and cycloartenol. However,

FgFAD12 Regulates Vegetative Growth, Pathogenicity and Linoleic Acid Biosynthesis in Fusarium graminearum

Journal of Fungi
Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), as important components of lipids, play indispensable roles in the development of all organisms. ∆12 fatty acid desaturase (FAD12) is a speed-determining step in the biosynthesis of PUFAs.

Fatty Acid Biosynthesis in Human Leukocytes* [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 1967
Extracts from human leukocytes have been examined for the enzymes of de novo fatty acid biosynthesis. These extracts do not catalyze the synthesis of long-chain fatty acids because they lack acetyl CoA carboxylase, the first enzyme unique to the fatty acid synthesis pathway.

The human gut microbiome across the life course

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

Allelopathic Molecular Mechanisms of the Two Main Allelochemicals in Sweet Potato

Current Issues in Molecular Biology
Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) is one of the most important global food crops. This crop exhibits excellent allelopathic potential against various weeds, but its allelopathic mechanism at the molecular level is unclear.

Relationship of epidermal lipogenesis to cutaneous barrier function.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1987
Although the lipids of mammalian stratum corneum are known to be important for the cutaneous permeability barrier, the factors that regulate epidermal lipid biosynthesis are poorly understood.

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

A seasonal dynamics of free fatty acid content and gene expression provides new insights into the fatty acid metabolism in Acer truncatum seeds

Industrial Crops and Products
Acer truncatum Bunge (ATB) seed oil has garnered attention in China as a promising edible oil due to its diverse health benefits. The transcriptome and targeted metabolome analyses were conducted on ATB seeds collected from Tongliao, Inner Mongolia (IMTL)
