Modification of Fatty Acid Composition of Escherichia coli by Co-Expression of Fatty Acid Desaturase and Thioesterase from Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]

open access: yesBioengineering, 2022
Fatty acid composition has an important influence on the fluidity of biological membranes, which is a key factor for the survival of Escherichia coli. With the aim to modify fatty acid composition in this experimentally friendly microorganism, the AtFab2

Desaturase Genes Expression and Fatty Acid Composition of Pleurotus ostreatus in Response to Zinc and Iron [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cell and Molecular Research, 2018
The influence of ZnSO4, FeSO4, ZnO, and Fe2O3 at 80 µM on the expression of desaturase genes and fatty acid composition of Pleurotus ostreatus was investigated. Fatty acid was extracted by lipid extraction and methylation procedure using acidic methanol:

Complex Interactions Between Circulating Fatty Acid Levels, Desaturase Activities, and the Risk of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus: A Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition, 2022
ObjectiveMaternal abnormal fatty acid desaturation has previously been linked to gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). However, few studies have investigated this relationship longitudinally throughout pregnancy.

Association between increased visceral fat area and alterations in plasma fatty acid profile in overweight subjects: a cross-sectional study

open access: yesLipids in Health and Disease, 2017
Background Visceral fat accumulation in overweight status has been resulted in changes of fatty acid profiles. The fatty acids profiles can be altered by fatty acid desaturase; the activity of which is highly associated with obesity and other metabolic ...

Homology modeling and docking studies of a Δ9-fatty acid desaturase from a Cold-tolerant Pseudomonas sp. AMS8 [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2018
Membrane-bound fatty acid desaturases perform oxygenated desaturation reactions to insert double bonds within fatty acyl chains in regioselective and stereoselective manners.

Up-regulated delta 9-desaturase gene expression by hypolipidemic peroxisome-proliferating fatty acids results in increased oleic acid content in liver and VLDL: accumulation of a delta 9-desaturated metabolite of tetradecylthioacetic acid

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1997
In the liver of rats, monocarboxylic 3-thia fatty acids, tridecylthioacetic acid (C13-S-acetic acid) and tetradecylthioacetic acid (C14-S-acetic acid), increase the mRNA levels of delta 9-desaturase both in a time- and dose-dependent manner.
