FATTY ACID INHIBITION OF CHOLESTEROL SYNTHESIS
Canadian Journal of Biochemistry and Physiology, 1956Fatty acids inhibit cholesterol synthesis by rat liver homogenates. Inhibition occurs with acids containing either an even or an odd number of carbon atoms in the chain, and with saturated and unsaturated acids, the inhibition increasing with the degree of unsaturation of the acid.

1964
The enzyme synthesis of fatty acids has been studied for the most part in the fruit of the Fuerte or McArthur variety of the avocado (Stumpf and Barber, 1957 (1959); Mudd and Stumpf, 1961; Barron, Squires and Stumpf, 1961). The synthesis occurs in a particulate fraction of the cell that has all the properties of typical mitochondria i. e., sediments at

Fatty acid synthesis in heart sarcosomes
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta, 1960Abstract 1. 1. Heart sarcosomes catalyse the incorporation of acetate into a mixture of saturated and unsaturated long-chain fatty acids. 2. 2. ATP, coenzyme A, TPN + and certain Krebs-cycle intermediates are required for maximum activity. 3. 3. The hydrogen donors can be divided into two groups: (a) α-ketoglutarate, succinate and malate,

Fatty acid synthesis inTrichophyton rubrum
Mycopathologia et Mycologia Applicata, 1973Analysis of the fatty acid content ofT. rubrum showed that the organism is capable of synthesizing a variety of saturated and unsaturated long-chain fatty acids (Kostiw, Vicher &Lyon, 1966). The present study was undertaken to determine the mechanism of synthesis of these fatty acids.

Synthesis of Fatty Acids and Lipids
1998All cells contain lipids, most of which contain fatty acids. Unicellular organisms possess all of the biochemical machinery necessary to synthesize their cellular components and are, therefore, capable of synthesizing the fatty acids and lipids they require.

The pathways of synthesis of fatty acids by mitochondria
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1962Abstract Mitochondria obtained from mammalian liver are capable of incorporating acetyl CoA into long chain fatty acids. Some of the characteristics of synthesis of fatty acids within mitochondria have been reported (1,2). The purpose of this communication is to present evidence for the existence of several pathways of synthesis within mitochondria ...

Fatty Acid Synthesis in Developing Brain
Neonatology, 1974Acetyl-CoA carboxylase (EC 6.4.1.2) activity in the supernatant fraction of the rat brain is highest during the first 2 weeks of postnatal life, coincident with the period of maximal brain growth, and then declines by 50% to adult levels. As its <i>in vitro</i> activity is similar to that of fatty acid synthetase, it does not appear to be ...

The Mechanism of Fatty Acid Synthesis
The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1960AEARLY AS 1907, ' recognizing the fact that almost all the naturally occur- ring fatty acids are composed of an even number of carbon atoms, had suggested that these acids are produced by the condensation of some highly reactive substance containing two carbon atoms.

Fatty Acid Synthesis and Breakdown
1987Fatty acid synthesis is known to occur exclusively in plastids, since it has been shown that the enzymes essential for fatty acid biosynthesis are found only in this organelle (Ohlrogge et al., 1979). Hence, in leaves fatty acids are made in chloroplasts and in seeds they are formed in modified plastids (leucoplasts) that are specialized for fatty acid

Synthesis and Storage of Fatty Acids
1997Information about the enzymology and molecular genetics of lipid synthesis in oilseeds is accumulating rapidly in part because of the commercial possibilites that can be realized through the production of modified vegetable oils. Important breakthroughs in the production of transgenic oilseed crops have already been achieved.
