Although incapable of fattyacid synthesis from acetate de novo, the mutant yeast still elongates the dietary fatty acids by one or more C2 units. The extent of elongation is dependent on the chain length of the fatty acid included in the growth medium. It is most evident with tridecanoic ...
Fatty-acid elongation in a mutant of Saccharomyces cerevisiae deficient in fatty-acid synthetase. The incorporation and metabolic alteration of a variety of dietary fatty acids has been studied in wild-type Saccharomyces cerevisiae and a fatty-acid au... TW Orme,Feodor Lynen,J Mcintyre,... - ...

The biosynthesis of ‘unusual’ fatty acids with structures that deviate from the common C16 and C18 fatty acids has evolved numerous times in the plant kingdom. Characterization of unusual fatty acid biosynthesis has enabled increased understanding of e
fatty acid generation by stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1 and polyunsaturated fatty acid elongation by fatty acid elongase 5, leading to significant alterations in glycerophospholipid acyl-chain profiles. A composite classification score calculated from the observed alterations in fatty acid profiles in germfree ...

According to a GC–MS analysis, the main components of F1 are fatty-acid derivatives: palmitic acid methyl ester, palmitic acid ethyl ester, octadecenoic acid methyl ester, linoleic acid ethyl ester, and oleic acid ethyl ester. Keywords: Agave angustifolia; edible plant; fatty acids; rheumatoid ...
The plasma fatty acid composition was associated with the histological evidence of NASH. Increased synthesis of fatty acids is associated with NASH; insufficient intake of n-3 essential fatty acids and reduced elongation of fatty acids are associated with fibrosis in NASH. These features may help ...
Low erucic acid rapeseed (LEAR) is characterised by a near absence of very long chain fatty acids in the seed oil which has been correlated with a lack of acyl-CoA elongation activity. Here we show that the absence of acyl-CoA and ATP-dependent elongation activities in microsomes isolated fr...
