Poly-saturated dolichols from filamentous fungi modulate activity of dolichol-dependent glycosyltransferase and physical properties of membranes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Mono-saturated polyprenols (dolichols) have been found in almost all Eukaryotic cells, however, dolichols containing additional saturated bonds at the ω-end, have been identified in A. fumigatus and A. niger.

Molecular Circuits of Resolution in Airway Inflammation

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, Volume 10, Issue 1, Page 1386-1399, 2010., 2010
Inflammatory diseases of the lung are common, cause significant morbidity, and can be refractory to therapy. Airway responses to injury, noxious stimuli, or microbes lead to leukocyte recruitment for host defense. As leukocytes respond, they interact with lung resident cells and can elaborate specific mediators that are enzymatically generated from ...

A genome-wide MeSH-based literature mining system predicts implicit gene-to-gene relationships and networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background The large amount of literature in the post-genomics era enables the study of gene interactions and networks using all available articles published for a specific organism.

Lipoxin Receptors

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 1393-1412, 2007., 2007
Lipoxins (LXs) represent a class of arachidonic acid (AA) metabolites that carry potent immunoregulatory and anti‐inflammatory properties, LXA4 and LXB4 being the main components of this series. LXs are generated by cooperation between 5‐lipoxygenase (LO) and 12‐ or 15‐LO during cell‐cell interactions or by single cell types.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis pks12 Produces a Novel Polyketide Presented by CD1c to T Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
CD1c-mediated T cells are activated by a mycobacterial phospholipid antigen whose carbohydrate structure precisely corresponds to mammalian mannosyl β-1-phosphodolichol (MPD), but contains an unusual lipid moiety.

Lipid‐Derived Mediators in Endogenous Anti‐Inflammation and Resolution: Lipoxins and Aspirin‐Triggered 15‐epi‐Lipoxins

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 169-204, 2002., 2002
It is well appreciated that lipid‐derived mediators play key roles in inflammation and many other physiologic responses where multicellular processes are involved. Among them, lipoxins (LX) and aspirin‐triggered LX (ATL) evoke actions of interest in a range of physiologic and pathophysiologic processes, and these two series have emerged as founding ...

From glycosylation disorders to dolichol biosynthesis defects: a new class of metabolic diseases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Polyisoprenoid alcohols are membrane lipids that are present in every cell, conserved from archaea to higher eukaryotes. The most common form, alpha-saturated polyprenol or dolichol is present in all tissues and most organelle membranes of eukaryotic ...

Structural elucidation of the cis -prenyltransferase NgBR/DHDDS complex reveals insights in regulation of protein glycosylation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Cis- prenyltransferase ( cis- PTase) catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the synthesis of glycosyl carrier lipids required for protein glycosylation in the lumen of endoplasmic reticulum.

Quantitative assay and subcellular distribution of enzymes acting on dolichyl phosphate in rat liver [PDF]

open access: yes, 1981
To establish on a quantitative basis the subcellular distribution of the enzymes that glycosylate dolichyl phosphate in rat liver, preliminary kinetic studies on the transfer of mannose, glucose, and N-acetylglucosamine-1-phosphate from the respective ...

The cis‐prenyltransferase protein family in Taraxacum koksaghyz

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 121, Issue 3, February 2025.
Significance Statement The novelty of this work lies in the comprehensive description of cis‐prenyl transferases in the rubber‐producing plant Taraxacum koksaghyz. This provides valuable insights for breeding and rational protein design in heterologous systems.
