Biochemical and molecular evidence of a Δ9 fatty acid desaturase from Ensifer meliloti 1021
(Elsevier Gmbh, 2014-05)
It has been reported that Ensifer meliloti presents a high proportion of monounsaturated fatty acids and has a putative desaturase gene designated as PhFAD12 (National Centre for Biotechnology Information), encoding a ...
Pseudomonas putida Δ9-fatty acid desaturase: Gene cloning, expression, and function in the cationic surfactants stress
(Wiley VCH Verlag, 2019-05)
Pseudomonas putida counteract the fluidizing effect of cationic surfactants decreasing the content of membrane unsaturated fatty acid (UFA). A Δ9-fatty acid desaturase gene (desA) from P. putida was isolated, cloned, and ...
C-5(6) Sterol Desaturase from Tetrahymena thermophila: Gene Identification and Knockout, Sequence Analysis, and Comparison to Other C-5(6) Sterol Desaturases
(American Society for Microbiology, 2009-12)
The gene coding for a C-5(6) sterol desaturase in Tetrahymena thermophila, DES5A, has been identified by the knockout of the TTHERM_01194720 sequence. Macronucleus transformation was achieved by biolistic bombardment and ...
In Silico Analysis of Fatty Acid Desaturase Genes and Proteins in Grasses
(Humana Press, 2017-07-28)
Fatty acid desaturases (FADs) catalyze the introduction of a double bond into acyl chains. Two FAD groups have been identified in plants: acyl-acyl carrier proteins (ACPs) and acyl-lipid or membrane-bound FAD. The former ...
Association of novel characterized sequence variations in the ζ-carotene desaturase (Zds) gene with yellow color and yellow pigment content in durum wheat cultivars
(Elsevier, 2021-05)
In durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. var. durum), grown primarily for the production of pasta and other food products, yellow color is an important quality standard. This trait is linked to several different aspects, such ...
Δ9 desaturase from Trypanosoma cruzi: Key enzyme in the parasite metabolism. Cloning and overexpression
(Elsevier Gmbh, 2017-01)
Desaturases, key enzymes in the metabolism of fatty acids, regulate the physical and biochemical properties of membranes. They adjust the composition of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids in response to changes in the ...
Use of PCR-RFLP (Polymerase Chain Reaction-Restricted Fragment Length Polymorphism) in the gene of the enzyme Stearoyl-CoA-Desaturase in Bubalus bubalis
(Pagepress Publ, 2007-01-01)
The milk is an important food because it contents Conjugated Linoleic Acids (CIA). These fatty acids are synthesized in mammary gland under action of the enzyme Stearoyl CoA-Desaturase (SCD) and have showed some positive ...
Use of PCR-RFLP (Polymerase Chain Reaction - Restricted Fragment Length Polymorphism) in the gene of the enzyme Stearoyl-CoA-Desaturase in Bubalus bubalis
(2007-12-01)
The milk is an important food because it contents Conjugated Linoleic Acids (CLA). These fatty acids are synthesized in mammary gland under action of the enzyme Stearoyl CoA-Desaturase (SCD) and have showed some positive ...
The sterol-C7 desaturase from the ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila is a Rieske oxygenase which is highly conserved in animals
(Oxford University Press, 2013-04-19)
The ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila incorporates sterols from its environment that desaturates at positions C5(6), C7(8), and C22(23). Phytosterols are additionally modified by removal of the ethyl group at carbon 24 (C24). ...
