Integrated lipidomic and transcriptomic analyses reveal the mechanism of lipid biosynthesis and accumulation during seed development in sesame [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Sesame is one of the most important oilseed crops and attracts significant attention because of its huge nutritional capacity. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying oil accumulation in sesame remains poorly understood. In this study, lipidomic and

5-Lipoxygenase activating protein (FLAP) dependent leukotriene biosynthesis inhibition (MK591) attenuates Lipid A endotoxin-induced inflammation. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
The Lipid A moiety of endotoxin potently activates TLR-4 dependent host innate immune responses. We demonstrate that Lipid-A mediated leukotriene biosynthesis regulates pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMP)-dependent macrophage activation ...

Advances in Metabolic Engineering of Saccharomyces cerevisiae for Cocoa Butter Equivalent Production

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020
Cocoa butter is extracted from cocoa beans, and it is mainly used as the raw material for the production of chocolate and cosmetics. Increased demands and insufficient cocoa plants led to a shortage of cocoa butter supply, and there is therefore much ...

The core triacylglycerol toolbox in woody oil plants reveals targets for oil production bioengineering

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Woody oil plants are the most productive oil-bearing species that produce seeds with high levels of valuable triacylglycerols (TAGs). TAGs and their derivatives are the raw materials for many macromolecular bio-based products, such as nylon precursors ...
