Defining the Enterococcus faecalis Fatty Acid Kinase System of Exogeneous Fatty Acid Utilization
Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.The enteric bacterium Enterococcus faecalis incorporates fatty acids from the medium and elongates any short chains to lengths suitable for membrane lipids. We have delineated the pathway. ABSTRACT Phospholipid synthesis in Firmicute bacteria differs markedly from that of the paradigm Escherichia coli pathway in that acyl phosphates are a key ...

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.Summary The production of coronavirus disease 2019 vaccines can be achieved by transient expression of the spike (S) protein of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 in agroinfiltrated leaves of Nicotiana benthamiana. Relying on bacterial vector Agrobacterium tumefaciens, this process is favoured by co‐expression of viral silencing suppressor

Mboat7 down-regulation by hyper-insulinemia induces fat accumulation in hepatocytes [PDF]
, 2020 BACKGROUND: Naturally occurring variation in Membrane-bound O-acyltransferase domain-containing 7 (MBOAT7), encoding for an enzyme involved in phosphatidylinositol acyl-chain remodelling, has been associated with fatty liver and hepatic disorders.

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Evidence suggests that the metabolism of inositol and its derivatives may be involved in various biological processes including salt tolerance, but there has been limited understanding. Ectopic expression of Gs5PTase8, an inositol polyphosphate 5‐phosphatase cloned from wild soybean (Glycine soja), significantly enhanced salt tolerance in ...

Analysis of the regulation of undecaprenyl diphosphate dephosphorylation in Escherichia coli
FEBS Open Bio, Volume 15, Issue 9, Page 1496-1507, September 2025.BacA, PgpB, and YbjG phosphatases are involved in undecaprenyl phosphate (C55P) synthesis in Escherichia coli. We analyzed the lipid contents and the gene expression in the gene‐disruption strains. Undecaprenyl diphosphate (C55PP) level increased in the bacA, ybjG double‐disruption strain, but C55P levels were similar in all strains.

Beneficial effects of artichoke on liver phosphatidate phosphohydrolase and plasma lipids in rats fed by lipogenic diet [PDF]
, 2011 Artichoke (Cynara scolymus L.) is full of natural antioxidants and has a lipid-lowering effect. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of artichoke on the liver phosphatidate phosphohydrolase, plasma lipid levels, plasma malondialdehyde, and
