Shewanella pacifica sp. nov., a polyunsaturated fatty acid-producing bacterium isolated from sea water.
Six marine bacterial strains, KMM 3597T, KMM 3775, KMM 3590, KMM 3772, KMM 3605 and KMM 3601, that produce polyunsaturated fatty acids were isolated from sea water samples collected from different locations and depths in Chazhma Bay (Sea of Japan, Pacific Ocean) and characterized to clarify their taxonomic position. The DNA G+C contents of these strains were 39.5-40.3 mol%. The level of DNA hyb...
متن کاملMetabolic Effects of Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids in Chickens: A Review
Chicken has been used as a suitable model for lipid metabolism studies, because dietary modifications especially dietary fat type can change chicken body composition. Fats act as a condense source of energy and certain fatty acids such as polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are required for both animal and human health. The n-3 PUFAs, especially, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic ...
متن کاملShewanella vesiculosa sp. nov., a psychrotolerant bacterium isolated from an Antarctic coastal area.
Two strains of psychrotolerant bacteria, designated M7(T) and M5, isolated from Antarctic coastal marine environments were studied to determine their taxonomic position. The organisms comprised Gram-negative, rod-shaped, facultatively anaerobic cells that were motile by means of single polar flagella. Neither of the bacterial isolates had a requirement for Na(+). These two psychrotolerant strai...
متن کاملA trans-unsaturated fatty acid in a psychrophilic bacterium, Vibrio sp. strain ABE-1.
A high level of a trans-unsaturated fatty acid was found in the phospholipids of a psychrophilic bacterium, Vibrio sp. strain ABE-1. This fatty acid was identified as 9-trans-hexadecenoic acid (C16:19t) by gas-liquid chromatography and infrared absorption spectrometry. C16:1(9)t accounted for less than 1% of the total fatty acids in cells grown at 5 degrees C and reached 12% of the total at 20 ...
متن کاملPolyunsaturated Fatty Acids (PUFAs)
1 Communicative & Integrative Biology 2009; Vol. 2 Issue 5 We recently found positive correlations between human general intelligence and three key indices of semen quality, and hypothesized that these correlations arise through a phenotypewide ‘general fitness factor’ reflecting overall mutation load. In this addendum we consider some of the biochemical pathways that may act as targets for ple...
