Thematic review series: Glycerolipids. Acyltransferases in bacterial glycerophospholipid synthesis.
Phospholipid biosynthesis is a vital facet of bacterial physiology that begins with the synthesis of the fatty acids by a soluble type II fatty acid synthase. The bacterial glycerol-phosphate acyltransferases utilize the completed fatty acid chains to form the first membrane phospholipid and thus play a critical role in the regulation of membrane biogenesis. The first bacterial acyltransferase ...
متن کاملThematic review series: The Pathogenesis of Atherosclerosis
This is the first of a series of reviews of the controversy that swirled around the “lipid hypothesis” of atherosclerosis for so many years. Today, in the era of the statins, there is no longer any doubt about the value of decreasing blood cholesterol levels. In fact, “the lower the better” is the position of many clinicians. However, getting to this point has been a long uphill battle marked b...
متن کاملMetabolism of Glycerolipids. Vi. Specificities of Acyl Coenzyme A: Phospholipid Acyltransferases.
Naturally occurring lipid mixtures seldom exhibit a random distribution of a particular fatty acid among the various compounds to which the esters are attached (2). Thus, an acid may represent a different percentage of the total fatty acids in different glycerolipids, even when these lipids are isolated from t,he same tissue. Furthermore, the acid will often not be equally distributed among the...
متن کاملNonenzymatic synthesis of glycerolipids catalyzed by imidazole.
Imidazole catalyzed acylations of lysolipids by acyl-CoAs in water at room temperature and at a pH close to neutrality. In the presence of oleoyl-CoA and either lysophosphatidylcholine, 1-palmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (LPC); lysophosphatidylglycerol, monoacyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoglycerol; lysophosphatidyl acid, 1-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphate; lysophosphatidylserine, monoacyl-sn-glycero...
متن کاملNew-Onset Bacterial Sinusitis in Pediatric Liver Transplant Recipients; Case Series and Review of Literature
Introduction: As a standard measure in some chronic liver disorder, liver transplantation (LT) has performed for about 3 decades in pediatric populations. Post operatively some patients suffering from infectious complications by viral, bacterial and fungal etiologies. Here in we presented 10 children diagnosed as bacterial sinusitis presenting with prolonged fever and upper respiratory tract sy...
