Amino acid residues 24-31 but not palmitoylation of cysteines 30 and 45 are required for membrane anchoring of glutamic acid decarboxylase, GAD65. [PDF]

, 1994
The smaller isoform of the GABA synthesizing enzyme glutamic acid decarboxylase, GAD65, is synthesized as a soluble protein that undergoes post-translational modification(s) in the NH2-terminal region to become anchored to the membrane of small synaptic ...

Analytical Study of Lanolin as Potential Biomarker of Prehistoric Sheep‐Shearing Practice

Chemistry–Methods, EarlyView.
Lanolin, a complex wax found on sheep wool, accumulates on shearing tools, such as flint and obsidian blades, used since the Neolithic. This study explores lanolin's degradation patterns as a potential biomarker for prehistoric sheep‐shearing practices, employing micro‐Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy, hyperspectral imaging, and gas ...

C. elegans fatty acid two-hydroxylase regulates intestinal homeostasis by affecting heptadecenoic acid production [PDF]

, 2018
Background/Aims: The hydroxylation of fatty acids at the C-2 position is the first step of fatty acid α-oxidation and generates sphingolipids containing 2-hydroxy fatty acyl moieties.

Aminosulfonated Graphene as a Catalyst for Efficient Production of Biodiesel from Fatty Acids and Crude Vegetable Oils

ChemSusChem, EarlyView.
The covalent integration of amino and sulfonate groups on the graphene surface significantly enhances activity in acid‐catalyzed reactions, such as in biodiesel production and dehydration of saccharides. Developing such heterogeneous, recyclable catalysts is vital, as acid catalysis represents one of the most general and versatile strategies in organic

Opium trade and use during the Late Bronze Age: Organic residue analysis of ceramic vessels from the burials of Tel Yehud, Israel

Archaeometry, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Organic residue analysis was conducted on various vessels from burials at Tel Yehud, Israel. The analyses led to new reliable evidence for the presence of opioid alkaloids and their decomposition products. This research revitalizes a decades‐old discussion on the presence and function of the opium trade across a cultural region of utmost ...

Inhibitory effect of Mg2+ on the protonophoric activity of palmitic acid

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 1995
To discriminate whether fatty acids are uncouplers that cause acceleration of State-4 respiration, associated with a decrease in the protonmotive force, or decouplers that increase respiration without associated decrease in the protonmotive force, we examined the effect of palmitate on functions of rat-liver mitochondria under various conditions.

Engineering Diesters From Saturated Fatty Acids and C2–C4 Diols: How Branching Influence Rheological, Flow, and Crystallization Properties

European Journal of Lipid Science and Technology, EarlyView.
The image illustrates the scope of the work, that is, the synthesis of diesters from saturated fatty acids (C9–C16) and linear or branched diols and the investigation of the relationship between molecular structure and rheological, crystallization, and oxidation stability properties.

Exploration of the nutritional profile of Trichocereus terscheckii (Parmentier) Britton & Rose stems [PDF]

, 2013
Columnar cacti Trichocereus terscheckii is an important source of food and water for insects, birds and wild cattle in dry areas of North West Argentina. Their fruits have been suggested as a plausible source of food, but are not directly included in the

Bleomycin-induced trans lipid formation in cell membranes and in liposome models [PDF]

, 2015
Cell cultures of NTera-2 cells incubated with bleomycin and liposomes as biomimetic models of cell membranes were used for examining some novel aspects of drug-metal induced reactivity with unsaturated lipids under oxidative conditions. In cell cultures,
