Temperature dependence of mycosubtilin homologue production in Bacillus subtilis ATCC6633 [PDF]
, 2020 Bacillus subtilis ATCC6633 produces mycosubtilin, a non-ribosomally synthesized lipopeptide of the iturin family which presents antagonistic activities toward various phytopathogens. Different homologues with fatty acid moiety varying from C 15 to C 17 are usually co-produced, with their biological activities increasing with the number of carbons in ...

6-O-glucose palmitate synthesis with lipase: Investigation of some key parameters [PDF]
Journal of Molecular Catalysis, Elsevier, 2018, 460, pp.63 - 68, 2019 Fatty acid sugar esters represent an important class of non-ionic bio-based surfactants. They can be synthesized from vinyl fatty acids and sugars with enzyme as a catalyst. Herein, the influence of the solvent, the lipase and the temperature on a model reaction between vinyl palmitate and glucose via enzymatic catalysis has been investigated and the ...

The Long and Short of Fatty Acid Synthesis [PDF]
Cell, 2007 The multienzyme complex that synthesizes very long chain fatty acids is embedded in the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum. In this issue, Denic and Weissman (2007) describe the reconstitution of this complex in liposomes and reveal how elongase proteins (Elops) determine the final length of the fatty acyl CoA chain.

mBio, 2013 Enoyl-acyl carrier protein (enoyl-ACP) reductase catalyzes the last step of the elongation cycle in the synthesis of bacterial fatty acids. The Enterococcus faecalis genome contains two genes annotated as enoyl-ACP reductases, a FabI-type enoyl-ACP ...

Mitochondrial fatty acid synthesis and respiration
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 2010 Recent studies have revealed that mitochondria are able to synthesize fatty acids in a malonyl-CoA/acyl carrier protein (ACP)-dependent manner. This pathway resembles bacterial fatty acid synthesis (FAS) type II, which uses discrete, nuclearly encoded proteins. Experimental evidence, obtained mainly through using yeast as a model system, indicates that

Cross-linking of polyesters based on fatty acids [PDF]
European Journal of Lipid Science and Technology, Wiley-VCH
Verlag, 2019, 121 (11), pp.1900264, 2019 This paper aimed at obtaining cross-linked polymeric materials of biomass origin. For this purpose one-pot polyesterification of methyl ricinoleate and methyl 12-hydroxystearate using titanium isopropoxide as a catalyst has been performed leading to polyesters known as estolides.

Lipid exchange promotes fusion of model protocells [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Vesicle fusion is an important process underlying cell division, transport, and membrane trafficking. In phospholipid systems, a range of fusogens including divalent cations and depletants have been shown to induce adhesion, hemifusion, and then full content fusion between vesicles.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects nearly one‐third of the global population and poses a significant risk of progression to cirrhosis or liver cancer. Here, we discuss the roles of hepatic dendritic cell subtypes in MASLD, highlighting their distinct contributions to disease initiation and progression, and their ...
