Phosphate limitation as crucial factor to enhance yeast lipid production from short‐chain fatty acids

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, 2023
Microbial lipids for chemical synthesis are commonly obtained from sugar‐based substrates which in most cases is not economically viable. As a low‐cost carbon source, short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs) that can be obtained from food wastes offer an ...

Aminosugar-based immunomodulator lipid A: synthetic approaches [PDF]

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2018
The immediate immune response to infection by Gram-negative bacteria depends on the structure of a lipopolysaccharide (LPS, also known as endotoxin), a complex glycolipid constituting the outer leaflet of the bacterial outer membrane. Recognition of picomolar quantities of pathogenic LPS by the germ-line encoded Toll-like Receptor 4 (TLR4) complex ...
