The plant disease resistance gene Asc-1 prevents disruption of sphingolipid metabolism during AAL-toxin-induced programmed cell death [PDF]
The nectrotrophic fungus Alternaria alternata f.sp. lycopersici infects tomato plants of the genotype asc/asc by utilizing a host-selective toxin, AAL-toxin, that kills the host cells by inducing programmed cell death.

Mycotoxin occurrence in maize silage : a neglected risk for bovine gut health? [PDF]
Forages are important components of dairy cattle rations but might harbor a plethora of mycotoxins. Ruminants are considered to be less susceptible to the adverse health effects of mycotoxins, mainly because the ruminal microflora degrades certain ...

Structure and conserved function of iso-branched sphingoid bases from the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]
Sphingolipids are bio-active metabolites that show structural diversity among eukaryotes. They are essential for growth of all eukaryotic cells but when produced in an uncontrolled manner can lead to cell death and pathologies including auto-immune ...

Synthesis of ceramides using N-hydroxysuccinimide esters
Fatty acyl esters of N-hYdroxYSuccinimide have been used to directly N-acylate sphingenine or sphinganine, forming the corresponding ceramides. The reaction proceeds in excellent yield (84–96%) from small amounts of starting material (10–20 mg).
