Engineering Arabidopsis long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase 9 variants with enhanced enzyme activity
Download2018-12-17
Xu, Yang, Caldo, Kristian Mark P., Holic, Roman, Mietkiewska, Elzbieta, Ozga, Jocelyn, Rizvi, Syed Masood, Chen, Guanqun, Weselake, Randall
Long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase (LACS, EC 6.2.1.3) catalyzes the ATP-dependent activation of free fatty acid to form acyl-CoA, which in turn serves as the major acyl donor for various lipid metabolic pathways. Increasing the size of acyl-CoA pool by enhancing LACS activity appears to be a useful...

Engineering Enhanced Performance in Plant Diacylglycerol Acyltransferase and Long-Chain Acyl-CoA Synthetase
DownloadSpring 2018
Triacylglycerol (TAG) is the major storage lipid in higher plants and has great nutritional and industrial value. Plant storage lipid biosynthesis involves different subcellular compartments and a complex network of enzymes and proteins. Among them, endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-bound diacylglycerol...

Xu, Yang, Holic, Roman, Li, Darren, Pan, Xue, Mietkiewska, Elzbieta, Chen, Guanqun, Ozga, Jocelyn, Weselake, Randall J.
Seed oil from flax (Linum usitatissimum) is enriched in a-linolenic acid (ALA; 18:3?9cis,12cis,15cis), but the biochemical processes underlying the enrichment of flax seed oil with this polyunsaturated fatty acid are not fully elucidated. Here, a potential process involving the catalytic actions...
