Metabolic engineering of medium-chain fatty acid biosynthesis in Nicotiana benthamiana plant leaf lipids
Various research groups are investigating the production of oil in non-seed biomass such as leaves. Recently, high levels of oil accumulation have been achieved in plant biomass using a combination of biotechnological approaches which also resulted in significant changes to the fatty acid composition of the leaf oil. In this study, we were interested to determine whether medium-chain fatty acid...
متن کاملMetabolic control analysis of de novo sunflower fatty acid biosynthesis.
We have obtained a simulation of the final steps of de novo fatty acid biosynthesis in sunflower control line RHA-274. For this simulation, we have used data from the evolution of fatty acids during seed formation and from the biochemical characterization of beta-keto-acyl-ACP synthetase II (FASII), stearoyl-ACP desaturase (SAD) and acyl-ACP thioesterase activities and the program GEPASI (based...
متن کاملFatty Acid Biosynthesis: Elongation
acids were detected as primary products of elonRoot surfaces are protected against the soil environment by the deposition of lignin and suberin. In order to obtain more insight into the regulation of root suberin biosynthesis, elongases from primary roots of corn (Zea mays L.) seedlings were characterized. Elongase activities (acyl-CoA and ATP-dependent) were located in the microsomal fraction ...
متن کاملEngineering of E. coli inherent fatty acid biosynthesis capacity to increase octanoic acid production
Background As a versatile platform chemical, construction of microbial catalysts for free octanoic acid production from biorenewable feedstocks is a promising alternative to existing petroleum-based methods. However, the bio-production strategy has been restricted by the low capacity of E. coli inherent fatty acid biosynthesis. In this study, a combination of integrated computational and experi...
متن کاملControl of Fatty Acid and Lipid Biosynthesis
When Euglena gracilis was grown under white (fluorescent) light in media containing high concentrations of ammonium chloride (more than 0.005%), the main lipids synthesized were monogalactosyl diglyceride, digalactosyl diglyceride, phosphatidyl glycerol, sulfolipid and the all eis 47,10-16:2, 47,10,13-16:3, Zl4,7,10,13-16:4, A9,12-18:2 and A9,12,15-18:3 fatty acids. At low levels of ammonium (l...
