Fatty acid derivatives(97–101) containing an internalaziridinegroup were prepared by reaction ofbasewith Me iodocarbamates obtained by addition of INCO to a natural fatty acid derivative followed by treatment with MeOH[142]. Preparation of epimino-stearates (97) has also been reported[143]....
Peptides and proteins are widely used to treat a range of medical conditions; however, they often have to be injected and their effects are short-lived. These shortcomings of the native structure can be addressed by molecular engineering, but this is a c
Metabolic engineering of Abstract Background The oleaginous, carotenogenic yeastRhodotorula toruloideshas been increasingly explored as a platform organism for the production of terpenoids and fatty acid derivatives. Fatty alcohols, a fatty acid derivative widely used in the production of detergents and sur...
cannot introduce double bonds after C10; this is why there is a requirement for theessential fatty acidslinoleic acid(n-6) andlinolenic acid(n-3), which can then be converted to the long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids,arachidonic acidandeicosapentaenoic acid, which are important metabolic ...
At the BP level, over-abundant proteins were annotated to the immune system process, chemokine production, acute-phase response, complement activation, carbohydrate derivative metabolic process, blood coagulation, hexose metabolic process, proteolysis, zymogen activation, and chaperon mediated protein folding...

Long-chain free fatty acids (FFAs) are a type of backbone molecule that can react with alcohol to produce biodiesels. Various microorganisms have become potent producers of FFAs. Efforts have focused on increasing metabolic flux to the synthesis of eithe
(18:1cis-11). This lipid accounts for more than 70% of the whole-cell fatty acid profile, which is characteristic forAlphaproteobacteria. Moreover,cis-11,12-methyleneoctadecanoic (19:0 cyclo11-12) acid can be present up to 20%. This compound is a derivative of 18:1cis-11; consequently...
process. However, there is no experimental or quantitative evidence in the literature to support the above interpretation that accumulation of acetic acid leads to foaming inADand the critical concentration of acetic acid in sludge beyond which digestion inhibition and potentially foaming occurs is ...
The preparation and use of nucleic acid fragments encoding fatty acid desaturase enzymes are described. The invention permits alteration of plant lipid composition. Chimeric genes incorporating such nucleic acid fragments with suitable regulatory sequences may be used to create transgenic plants with altere...
