Sphingomyelins and ceramides with very-long-chain PUFA are excluded from lowdensity, raft-like domains in differentiating spermatogenic cells
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2017-01-12)
Rat spermatogenic cells contain sphingomyelins (SM) and ceramides (Cer) with very long chain (VLC) PUFA, in nonhydroxylated (n-V) and 2-hydroxylated (h-V) forms. How these atypical species distribute among membrane fractions ...
Phylogenomic analysis of integral diiron membrane histidine motif-containing enzymes in ciliates provides insights into their function and evolutionary relationships
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2017-09)
The Integral Membrane Histidine Motif-containing Enzymes (IMHME) are a class of binuclear non-heme iron proteins widely distributed among prokaryotes and eukaryotes. They are characterized by a conserved tripartite motif ...
Evaluation of chronic omega-3 fatty acids supplementation on behavioral and neurochemical alterations in 6-hydroxydopamine-lesion model of Parkinson`s disease
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2010)
Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (omega-3 PUFAs) have been widely associated to beneficial effects over different neuropathologies, but only a few studies associate them to Parkinson`s disease (PD). Rats were submitted ...
A Novel Sterol Desaturase-Like Protein Promoting Dealkylation of Phytosterols in Tetrahymena thermophila
(American Society For Microbiology, 2011-01)
The gene TTHERM_00438800 (DES24) from the ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila encodes a protein with three conserved histidine clusters, typical of the fatty acid hydroxylase superfamily. Despite its high similarity to sterol ...
