Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 2008 Saccharomyces cerevisiae Gup1p is a membrane-bound O-acyltransferase. Previous works involved GUP1 in a wide range of crucial processes for cell preservation and functioning. These include cytoskeleton polarization and secretory/endocytic pathway, GPI-anchor remodelling, wall composition and integrity, and membrane lipids, with a reduction in ...

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 21, June 5, 2025.The article presents the development of artificial lipid droplets (aLDs) as biomimetic nanocarriers to enhance intramuscular fat (IMF) content in pigs. These aLDs, loaded with oleic acid, significantly increase IMF by up to 35% in muscle tissues without adverse side effects. This innovative approach improves pork quality by enhancing marbling, offering

Tomato UDP-glucose sterol glycosyltransferases: A family of developmental and stress regulated genes that encode cytosolic and membrane-associated forms of the enzyme [PDF]
, 2017 Sterol glycosyltransferases (SGTs) catalyze the glycosylation of the free hydroxyl group at C-3 position of sterols to produce sterol glycosides. Glycosylated sterols and free sterols are primarily located in cell membranes where in combination with ...

The FASEB Journal, 2015 A key component of eukaryotic lipid homeostasis is the esterification of sterols with fatty acids by sterol O-acyltransferases (SOATs). The esterification reactions are allosterically activated by their sterol substrates, the majority of which accumulate at the plasma membrane.
