Production of long-chain free fatty acids from metabolically engineered Rhodobacter sphaeroides heterologously producing periplasmic phospholipase A2 in dodecane-overlaid two-phase culture

Microbial Cell Factories, 2019
Background Long-chain free fatty acids (FFAs) are a type of backbone molecule that can react with alcohol to produce biodiesels. Various microorganisms have become potent producers of FFAs.

Endogenous ligands of bovine FFAR2/GPR43 display distinct pharmacological properties

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
IntroductionFree fatty acids (FFAs) have been identified as ligands for members of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) family, called free fatty acid receptors (FFARs). Among these receptors, there is a particular interest in the physiological roles of

INTERNAL OR EXTERNAL STANDARD TECHNIQUES FOR QUANTIFICATION OF FREE FATTY ACIDS (FFAs) IN RAW MILK AND KEFIR SAMPLES

Scientific Study & Research: Chemistry & Chemical Engineering, Biotechnology, Food Industry, 2021
Free fatty acids (FFAs) can be analyzed by chromatographic methods as both qualitatively and quantitatively. The concentration of FFAs can be estimated by using internal or external standard techniques.

Preferential arrangement of lipids in the long-periodicity phase of a stratum corneum matrix model

Journal of Lipid Research, 2018
The lipid matrix of the stratum corneum, the outermost skin layer, consists primarily of ceramides, cholesterol, and FFAs. These lipids form a trilayer long-periodicity phase (LPP) that is unique to this barrier.

Unraveling Tissue‐Specific Fatty Acid Biosynthesis and Inter‐Tissue Crosstalk in Mice through Stable‐Isotope Tracing Metabolomics

Advanced Science
Biosynthesis of free fatty acids (FFAs) in mammals is pivotal for metabolic homeostasis, yet a comprehensive understanding of tissue‐specific biosynthesis and inter‐tissue crosstalk of FFAs remains incomplete.

Long-chain unsaturated free fatty acids reduce the host cell invasion of Listeria monocytogenes outbreak strains

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
The Gram-positive bacterium Listeria monocytogenes is a highly adaptable pathogen capable of causing severe foodborne infections, particularly in vulnerable populations. During infection, L. monocytogenes uses a variety of virulence factors to invade and
