Polyunsaturated fatty acid-specific elongation enzymes.
We have isolated a novel gene (GLELO) from Mortierella alpina and its homologue (CEELO1) from Caenorhabditis elegans and demonstrate the involvement of their encoded proteins in the elongation of C(18) polyunsaturated fatty acids.
متن کاملStilbene and chalcone synthases: related enzymes with key functions in plant-specific pathways.
Several years of extensive research using the new powerful techniques of molecular biology have enabled the direct comparison of functionally or evolutionarily related genes and their products at the nucleotide and amino acid sequence levels. Two types of synthase with similar functions are discussed as an interesting example. Stilbene synthases, e.g. resveratrol synthase, produce the stilbene ...
متن کاملEngineering fatty acid synthases for directed polyketide production.
In this study, we engineered fatty acid synthases (FAS) for the biosynthesis of short-chain fatty acids and polyketides, guided by a combined in vitro and in silico approach. Along with exploring the synthetic capability of FAS, we aim to build a foundation for efficient protein engineering, with the specific goal of harnessing evolutionarily related megadalton-scale polyketide synthases (PKS) ...
متن کاملEnzymes of Fatty Acid Metabolism
The mechanism of the biological oxidation and synthesis of fatty acids has largely been elucidated during the past few years through work in several laboratories (l-7). This work resulted in the complete confirmation of Knoop’s B oxidation theory and of the main conclusions derived from the early work of Dakin and Embden. Perhaps one of the most important aspects of the recent work is the demon...
متن کاملProduct diversity and regulation of type II fatty acid synthases.
Fatty acid biosynthesis is catalyzed in most bacteria by a group of highly conserved proteins known as the type II fatty acid synthase (FAS II) system. FAS II has been extensively studied in the Escherichia coli model system, and the recent explosion of bioinformatic information has accelerated the investigation of the pathway in other organisms, mostly important human pathogens. All FAS II sys...
