Specific Changes in Arabidopsis thaliana Rosette Lipids during Freezing Can Be Associated with Freezing Tolerance

Metabolites, 2022
While the roles of a few specific lipids in plant freezing tolerance are understood, the effect of many plant lipids remains to be determined. Acclimation of plants to non-freezing cold before exposure to freezing temperatures improves the outcome of ...

Membrane Lipid Derivatives: Roles of Arachidonic Acid and Its Metabolites in Pancreatic Physiology and Pathophysiology

Molecules, 2023
One of the most important constituents of the cell membrane is arachidonic acid. Lipids forming part of the cellular membrane can be metabolized in a variety of cellular types of the body by a family of enzymes termed phospholipases: phospholipase A2 ...

Modification of phosphoinositides by the Shigella effector IpgD during host cell infection

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
Shigella, the causative agent of bacillary dysentery, subvert cytoskeletal and trafficking processes to invade and replicate in epithelial cells using an arsenal of bacterial effectors translocated through a type III secretion system. Here, we review the

Two Different Phospholipases C, Isc1 and Pgc1, Cooperate To Regulate Mitochondrial Function

Microbiology Spectrum, 2022
The absence of Isc1, the yeast homologue of mammalian neutral sphingomyelinase type 2, leads to severe mitochondrial dysfunction. We show that the deletion of another type C phospholipase, the phosphatidylglycerol (PG)-specific phospholipase Pgc1 ...

Properties of Clostridium Perfringens (Welch II) Type-A  -Toxin (Phospholipase c) Purified By Electrofocusing [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 1974
SUMMARY Clostridium perfringens type-A α-toxin (phospholipase C) was purified on a preparative scale by a simple, rapid, two-stage procedure involving precipitation of culture-supernatant fluids with ammonium sulphate at 35 to 50% saturation, followed by isoelectric focusing in a pH 4·6 gradient.

Propofol Anesthesia Is Reduced in Phospholipase C–Related Inactive Protein Type-1 Knockout Mice [PDF]

The Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics, 2017
The GABA type A receptor (GABAA-R) is a major target of intravenous anesthetics. Phospholipase C-related inactive protein type-1 (PRIP-1) is important in GABAA-R phosphorylation and membrane trafficking. In this study, we investigated the role of PRIP-1 in general anesthetic action.

A transcriptomic analysis of gene expression in the venom gland of the snake Bothrops alternatus (urutu)

BMC Genomics, 2010
Background The genus Bothrops is widespread throughout Central and South America and is the principal cause of snakebite in these regions. Transcriptomic and proteomic studies have examined the venom composition of several species in this genus, but many

Comparative Genome Analysis and Phenotypic Characterization of Clostridium gasigenes CGAS001 Isolated From Chilled Vacuum-Packed Lamb Meat

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Genomic data for psychrophilic bacteria causing blown pack spoilage (BPS) are limited. This study characterizes the genome of a novel Clostridium gasigenes strain CGAS001 isolated from meat juice sample (MJS) of vacuum-packed lamb meat by comparing it ...

Comparison of Protein Variation in Protobothrops mucrosquamatus Venom between Northern and Southeast Taiwan and Association with Human Envenoming Effects

Toxins, 2022
Reports of bite from Protobothrops mucrosquamatus (Pmu) are frequent in Taiwan, and its wide-spread distribution and diverse habitats drove us to investigate its envenoming effects and relevant venom variations.

An amphitropic cAMP-binding protein in yeast mitochondria [PDF]

, 1989
: We describe the first example of a mitochondrial protein with a covalently attached phos-phatidylinositol moiety acting as a membrane anchor. The protein can be metabolically labeled with both stearic acid and inositol.
