Interactions of the ergosterol biosynthetic pathway with other lipid pathways.
Micro-organisms have recently received broad attention as sources of novel lipids. An increased understanding of the effects of fats and oils and their composition on the metabolism and on health has shifted the focus towards the use of lipids for disease treatment and prevention and for the promotion of good health. A large range of lipidic products produced by yeast is known today. Ergosterol...
متن کاملFACKEL is a sterol C-14 reductase required for organized cell division and expansion in Arabidopsis embryogenesis.
In flowering plants, the developing embryo consists of growing populations of cells whose fates are determined in a position-dependent manner to form the adult organism. Mutations in the FACKEL (FK) gene affect body organization of the Arabidopsis seedling. We report that FK is required for cell division and expansion and is involved in proper organization of the embryo. We isolated FK by posit...
متن کاملA Unique Tryptophan C-Prenyltransferase from the Kawaguchipeptin Biosynthetic Pathway.
Cyanobactins are a rapidly growing family of linear and cyclic peptides produced by cyanobacteria. Kawaguchipeptins A and B, two macrocyclic undecapeptides reported earlier from Microcystis aeruginosa NIES-88, are shown to be products of the cyanobactin biosynthetic pathway. The 9 kb kawaguchipeptin (kgp) gene cluster was identified in a 5.26 Mb draft genome of Microcystis aeruginosa NIES-88. W...
متن کاملHydroxyurea Induces Cytokinesis Arrest in Cells Expressing a Mutated Sterol-14α-Demethylase in the Ergosterol Biosynthesis Pathway.
Hydroxyurea (HU) has been used for the treatment of multiple diseases, such as cancer. The therapeutic effect is generally believed to be due to the suppression of ribonucleotide reductase (RNR), which slows DNA polymerase movement at replication forks and induces an S phase cell cycle arrest in proliferating cells. Although aberrant mitosis and DNA damage generated at collapsed forks are the l...
متن کاملLit Lunch 2/6/14
The putative eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A (eIF5A) is a highly conserved and essential protein present in all organisms except bacteria. To be activated, eIF5A requires the conversion of a specific residue of lysine into hypusine. This hypusine modification occurs posttranslationally in two enzymatic steps, and the polyamine spermidine is the substrate. Despite having an essential...
