Tip60-mediated lipin 1 acetylation and ER translocation determine triacylglycerol synthesis rate

Nature Communications, 2018
The acetyltransferase Tip60 mediates signaling pathways by acetylating non-histone proteins. Here the authors show that fatty acids induce Tip60–dependent acetylation of phosphatidic acid phosphatase lipin1 which, then, translocates to the ER and ...

Intermolecular Carbon–Carbon Naphthalene Coupling Involves a Radical Mechanism Driven by Cytochrome P450 in Alternaria alternata

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
1,8‐DHN is an important intermediate to form complex aromatic ring systems. Phenol‐coupling reactions are important for the dimerization of two molecules. Here, we show that a fungal cytochrome P450 enzyme catalyzes specific C─C bonds. ABSTRACT Dihydroxynaphthalene (DHN) derivatives are precursors of biologically important molecules, including melanin ...

The functions of phospholipases and their hydrolysis products in plant growth, development and stress responses

Progress in lipid research, 2022
Cell membranes are the initial site of stimulus perception from environment and phospholipids are the basic and important components of cell membranes. Phospholipases hydrolyze membrane lipids to generate various cellular mediators.

Mg2+-driven selection of natural phosphatidic acids in primitive membranes [PDF]

Biological membranes are composed of phospholipids comprising exclusively glycerol-1-phosphate or glycerol-3- phosphate. By contrast, primitive membranes would have been composed of heterogeneous mixtures of phospholipids, including non-natural analogues

Levels of Arabidopsis thaliana leaf phosphatidic acids, phosphatidylserines, and most trienoate-containing polar lipid molecular species increase during the dark period of the diurnal cycle

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2012
Previous work has demonstrated that plant leaf polar lipid fatty acid composition varies during the diurnal (dark-light) cycle. Fatty acid synthesis occurs primarily during the light, but fatty acid desaturation continues in the absence of light ...

Regulation of mTOR by Phosphatidic Acid? [PDF]

Cancer Research, 2007
Abstract Interest in the regulation of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) has increased substantially in recent years largely because of an apparent link between mTOR and survival signals in human cancer cells. Much has been learned about the regulation of mTOR in response to survival signals generated by phosphatidylinositol 3 ...

Identification of caspase 3 motifs and critical aspartate residues in human Phospholipase D1b and Phopsholipase D2a [PDF]

, 2008
Stimulation of mammalian cells frequently initiates phospholipase D-catalysed hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine in the plasma membrane to yield phosphatidic acid (PA) a novel lipid messenger.

Origin of triacylglycerol moiety of plasma very low density lipoproteins in the rat: structural studies

Journal of Lipid Research, 1995
We have compared the molecular species composition of the glycerolipids of rat liver and rat plasma very low density lipoproteins (VLDL). There were differences in the stereospecific distribution of the fatty acids in the triacylglycerols (TG) of the ...
