Enhancing very long chain fatty acids production in Yarrowia lipolytica. [PDF]
Background Very long chain fatty acids (VLCFA) and their derivatives are industrially attractive compounds. The most important are behenic acid (C22:0) and erucic acid (C22:1Δ13), which are used as lubricants, and moisturizers.

Very long-chain fatty acids drive 1-deoxySphingolipid toxicity. [PDF]
1-Deoxysphingolipids (1-deoxySLs) are atypical sphingolipids formed when serine palmitoyltransferase incorporates L-alanine instead of L-serine. Elevated 1-deoxySLs are associated with hereditary sensory neuropathy type 1 and diabetic neuropathy, but the

Genotoxicity evaluation of a fish oil concentrate containing Very Long Chain Fatty Acids. [PDF]
Very long chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) are lipids found in fish with a chain length longer than C22. They represent a minor lipid fraction composing of less than 1% of the total lipid.

Saturated very long-chain fatty acids regulate macrophage plasticity and invasiveness. [PDF]
Saturated very long-chain fatty acids (VLCFA, ≥ C22), enriched in brain myelin and innate immune cells, accumulate in X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD) due to inherited dysfunction of the peroxisomal VLCFA transporter ABCD1.

Reassessing very long chain fatty acids elevations: Sitosterolemia as a non-peroxisomal cause. [PDF]
Very-long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) are commonly used to diagnose peroxisomal disorders, but elevated levels may also result from other non-peroxisomal causes, leading to diagnostic challenges.

Practical preparation of unsaturated very-long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) and very-long-chain alkene pollinator attractants. [PDF]
To prepare very-long-chain fatty acids and alkenes (VLCFAs and VLC alkenes) that are known pollinator attractants for sexually deceptive orchids, and biosynthetic precursors thereof, we applied a methodology allowing us to prepare monounsaturated VLCFAs ...
