Expression of fatty acid synthesis genes and fatty acid accumulation in haematococcus pluvialis under different stressors
BACKGROUND Biofuel has been the focus of intensive global research over the past few years. The development of 4th generation biofuel production (algae-to-biofuels) based on metabolic engineering of algae is still in its infancy, one of the main barriers is our lacking of understanding of microalgal growth, metabolism and biofuel production. Although fatty acid (FA) biosynthesis pathway genes h...
متن کاملPicroside II attenuates fatty acid accumulation in HepG2 cells via modulation of fatty acid uptake and synthesis
BACKGROUND/AIMS Hepatic steatosis is caused by an imbalance between free fatty acids (FFAs) uptake, utilization, storage, and disposal. Understanding the molecular mechanisms involved in FFAs accumulation and its modulation could drive the development of potential therapies for Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. The aim of the current study was to explore the effects of picroside II, a phytoacti...
متن کاملRole of fatty acid synthesis
A decreased capacity for fatty acid synthesis is associated with a decreased insulin effect on glucose metabolism in large fat cells and fat cells from rats fed a high-fat diet. We have investigated the relationship between these processes by specifically inhibiting fatty acid synthesis with (-)-hydroxycitrate (2.5 mM), an inhibitor of citrate cleavage enzyme, and cerulenin (0.05 mM), an inhibi...
متن کاملRegulation of Fatty Acid Synthesis.
All plant cells produce fatty acids from acetyl-CoA by a common pathway localized in plastids. Although the biochemistry of this pathway is now well understood, much less is known about how plants control the very different amounts and types of lipids produced in different tissues. Thus, a central challenge for plant lipid research is to provide a molecular understanding of how plants regulate ...
متن کاملExpression of fatty acid and lipid biosynthetic genes.
An assessment of the transcript abundance of several fatty acid and lipid biosynthetic genes has been made. Total RNA was extracted from embryos at different stages of development and mRNA was analysed by quantitative Northern blots and used to probe cDNA arrays. Central fatty acid synthase components were present at different steady-state levels, but at constant ratios throughout development; ...
