Protein interactions of fatty acid synthase II.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have used a yeast two-hybrid approach to detect direct protein interactions between fatty acid synthase components. Enoyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP) reductase was found to interact with stearoyl-ACP desaturase and acyl-ACP thioesterase, but none of these proteins interacted with ACP in the yeast nucleus.

A photocrosslinking assay for reporting protein interactions in polyketide and fatty acid synthases.
Understanding protein-protein interactions that occur between ACP and KS domains of polyketide synthases and fatty acid synthases is critical to improving the scope and efficiency of combinatorial biosynthesis efforts aimed at producing non-natural polyketides. Here, we report a facile strategy for rapidly reporting such ACP-KS interactions based on the incorporation of an amino acid with photo...
متن کاملMechanistic diversity and regulation of Type II fatty acid synthesis.
Fatty acid biosynthesis is catalysed in most bacteria by a group of highly conserved proteins known as the Type II fatty acid synthase (FAS) system. The Type II system organization is distinct from its mammalian counterpart and offers several unique sites for selective inhibition by antibacterial agents. There has been remarkable progress in the understanding of the genetics, biochemistry and r...
متن کاملTandem affinity purification tagging of fatty acid biosynthetic enzymes in Synechocystis sp. PCC6803 and Arabidopsis thaliana.
De novo fatty acid synthesis in plants occurs primarily in the plastids and is catalysed by a type-II fatty acid synthase (FAS) in which separate enzymes catalyse sequential reactions. Genes encoding all of the plant FAS components have been identified, following enzyme purification or by homology to Escherichia coli genes, and the structure of a number of the individual proteins determined. Th...

The biosynthetic pathways of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids consist of many steps controlled by various enzymes. One of the methods for improving oil quality is to change the fatty acid profile through genetic manipulation which requires isolation and characterization of the genes and other cis-acting elements, such as the promoter, involved in fatty acid biosynthesis. b-ketoacyl-CoA syn...
متن کاملAcetoacetyl-acyl carrier protein synthase, a potential regulator of fatty acid biosynthesis in bacteria.
The first condensation reaction in the fatty acid biosynthetic pathway in Escherichia coli was rate-limiting as judged by analysis of the relative pool sizes of acyl carrier protein (ACP) thioester intermediates in vivo. Comparable concentrations of acetyl-ACP, malonyl-ACP, and nonesterified ACP were present during logarithmic growth, whereas long-chain acyl-ACP comprised a minor fraction of th...
