متن کاملAncestral lipid biosynthesis and early membrane evolution.
Archaea possess unique membrane phospholipids that generally comprise isoprenoid ethers built on sn-glycerol-1-phosphate (G1P). By contrast, bacterial and eukaryal membrane phospholipids are fatty acid esters linked to sn-glycerol-3-phosphate (G3P). The two key dehydrogenase enzymes that produce G1P and G3P, G1PDH and G3PDH, respectively, are not homologous. Various models propose that these en...
متن کاملBiophysical regulation of lipid biosynthesis in the plasma membrane.
We present a cellular model of lipid biosynthesis in the plasma membrane that couples biochemical and biophysical features of the enzymatic network of the cell-wall-less Mycoplasma Acholeplasma laidlawii. In particular, we formulate how the stored elastic energy of the lipid bilayer can modify the activity of curvature-sensitive enzymes through the binding of amphipathic alpha-helices. As the b...
متن کاملImpaired membrane traffic in defective ether lipid biosynthesis.
The first steps of ether lipid biosynthesis are exclusively localized to peroxisomes and hence some peroxisomal disorders are characterized by a severe deficiency of plasmalogens, the main ether lipids in humans. Here we report on gene defects of plasmalogen biosynthesis, chromosomal localization of the corresponding genes and, as a consequence of plasmalogen deficiency, on structural alteratio...
متن کاملXanthomonas campestris pv. campestris gum mutants: effects on xanthan biosynthesis and plant virulence.
Xanthan is an industrially important exopolysaccharide produced by the phytopathogenic, gram-negative bacterium Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris. It is composed of polymerized pentasaccharide repeating units which are assembled by the sequential addition of glucose-1-phosphate, glucose, mannose, glucuronic acid, and mannose on a polyprenol phosphate carrier (L. Ielpi, R. O. Couso, and M. A...
