Physaria fendleri and Ricinus communis LCAT-like phospholipases selectively cleave hydroxy acyl chains from phosphatidylcholine
Download2020-10-27
Xu, Yang, Caldo, Kristian Mark P., Singer, Stacy D., Mietkiewska, Elzbieta, Greer, Michael S., Tian, Bo, Dyer, John M., Smith, Mark, Zhou, Xue-Rong, Qiu, Xiao, Weselake, Randall J., Chen, Guanqun
Producing hydroxy fatty acids (HFAs) in transgenic crops represents a promising strategy to meet our demands for specialized plant oils with industrial applications. The expression of Ricinus communis (castor) OLEATE 12-HYDROXYLASE (RcFAH12) in Arabidopsis has resulted in only...

RNA helicases function as molecular motors that rearrange RNA secondary structure, potentially performing roles in any cellular process involving RNA metabolism. Although RNA helicase association with a range of cellular functions is well documented, their importance in response to abiotic stress...

Role of TG Lipases, Arylacetamide Deacetylase and Triacylglycerol Hydrolase, in Hepatitis C Virus Life Cycle
DownloadSpring 2013
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major cause of chronic liver disease, including liver steatosis, fibrosis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. It has become apparent that the targeting of lipid droplets (LDs) by the HCV core protein and the Very Low Density Lipoprotein (VLDL) secretory pathway...

STRESS RESPONSES OF THE FLAX GENOME: ACTIVATION OF TRANSPOSABLE ELEMENTS, DEFENSE GENES AND GENOME RESTRUCTURING AND DIVERSIFICATION.
DownloadSpring 2017
Transposable elements (TEs) are DNA sequences that can move in the genome (transpose) via a DNA or a RNA intermediate. TEs are abundant in plant genomes and can be activated by stress. Their activity can result in structural and gene expression alterations that increase diversity within and among...

Structural and Biochemical Changes in Loblolly Pine (Pinus taeda L.) Seeds during Germination and Early Seedling Growth. II. Storage Triacylglycerols and Carbohydrates
Download1999
Abstract: Triacylglycerols (TAGs) comprised 59% of the total storage reserve in mature loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) seeds; 80% of these TAGs were stored in the megagametophyte. The TAG breakdown in the seedling was initiated before radicle emergence (during germination), while in the...

Flax is an oilseed praised for high omega-3 oil, fiber and lignan content. Supercritical carbon dioxide (SCCO2) can be used as a green solvent alternative to process flax bioactives. SCCO2 extraction was used to remove lignan Secoisolariciresinol Diglucoside (SDG) from full fat and defatted whole...

Wind energy is a sustainable alternative to traditional fossil fuel sources. Improvements are constantly being made to maximize turbine efficiency, which is only increasing wind’s potential to be viable on a large-scale. Blades must be constructed using low density materials with high stiffness....

The Impact of Self-Cycling Fermentation on the Production of Shikimic Acid in Populations of Engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae
DownloadFall 2015
Shikimic acid is an intermediary metabolite in the biosynthesis of aromatic amino acids in plants and microorganisms. It is also a precursor for the production of specialty chemical ingredients used in pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and healthcare products. However, the current commercial method of...

The Oxa2 protein of Neurospora crassa plays a critical role in the biogenesis of cytochrome oxidase and defines a ubiquitous subbranch of the Oxa1/YidC/Alb3 protein family
Download2004
Herrmann, J.M., Nargang, F.E., Neupert, W., Funes, S.
Proteins of the Oxa1/YidC/Alb3 family mediate the insertion of proteins into membranes of mitochondria, bacteria, and chloroplasts. Here we report the identification of a second gene of the Oxa1/YidC/Alb3 family in the genome of Neurospora crassa, which we have named oxa2. Its gene product, Oxa2,...
