The metabolism of acetate and mevalonic acid by lactobacilli III. Studies on the unsaponifiable lipids derived from mevalonic acid

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta, 1962
Abstract In an investigation of the synthesis of the unsaponifiable lipids of Lactobacillus casei from mevalonic acid, it was shown that although no preferential order of synthesis of the components could be detected there was a turnover of the principal one with a simultaneous increase in the others.

An improved chemical ionization assay for mevalonic acid

Biological Mass Spectrometry, 1990
The determination of mevalonic acid by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) is complicated by poor extractability and multiple product formation. Reliable quantification down to physiological levels was achieved by isolating mevalonic acid by liquid partition chromatography and quantifying the underivatized lactone by means of ammonia chemical ...

The metabolism of acetate and mevalonic acid by lactobacilli II. The incorporation of [14C]acetate and [14C]mevalonic acid into the bacterial lipids

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta, 1962
Abstract Using [ 14 C]acetate and [ 14 C]mevalonic acid, it was shown that Lactobacillus casei, Lactibacillus arabinosus and Lactobacillus acidophilus incorporate from 20–35 times as much sodium acetate as mevalonic acid, the cellular concentration of mevalonic acid being from 0.5–0.9 μg/mg dry weight.

Enzymic Synthesis of Mevalonic Acid in Plants

1989
The biosynthesis of mevalonic acid (“MVA”), starting from acetyl-CoA (“Ac-CoA”), requires the action of three enzymes: a) acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase (“AACT”, EC 2.3.1.9), b) 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA synthase (“HMGS”, EC 4.1.3.5), and c) HMG-CoA reductase (“HMGR”, EC 1.1.1.34).

Biochemistry of the Mevalonic Acid Pathway to Terpenoids

1990
This series of lectures was delivered at the 29th meeting of the Phytochemical Society of North America, held at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, B. C., Canada on June 16th-20th, 1989. Topics concerning terpenoids, consisting of isoprene units, are now so numerous that a judicious selection for a relatively limited symposium was ...
