Regulation of phospholipid biosynthesis in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Phospholipids are key molecules that contribute to the structural definition of cells and that participate in the regulation of cellular processes. Phospholipid metabolism is a major activity that cells engage in throughout their growth. The yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, serves as a model system in which to study the regulation of phospholipid synthesis and its regulation in eucaryotes. Its ...
متن کاملBiosynthesis of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles using Intracellular Extract of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Evaluation of its Antibacterial and Antioxidant Activities
Introduction: Attention to the biosynthesis of nanoparticles (NPs) has been increased recently since they are cost-effective, eco-friendly, and potential alternatives to chemical and physical methods. This study aimed to synthesize zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) using an intracellular extract of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Moreover, it was attempted to evaluate their antibacterial and antioxi...
متن کاملRegulation of phospholipid synthesis in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, with its full complement of organelles, synthesizes membrane phospholipids by pathways that are generally common to those found in higher eukaryotes. Phospholipid synthesis in yeast is regulated in response to a variety of growth conditions (e.g., inositol supplementation, zinc depletion, and growth stage) by a coordination of genetic (e.g., transcriptional a...
متن کاملBiochemistry, cell biology and molecular biology of lipids of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a powerful experimental system to study biochemical, cell biological and molecular biological aspects of lipid synthesis. Most but not all genes encoding enzymes involved in fatty acid, phospholipid, sterol or sphingolipid biosynthesis of this unicellular eukaryote have been cloned, and many gene products have been functionally characterized. Less informati...
متن کاملRegulation of phospholipid synthesis in yeast.
Phospholipid synthesis in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a complex process that involves regulation by both genetic and biochemical mechanisms. The activity levels of phospholipid synthesis enzymes are controlled by gene expression (e.g., transcription) and by factors (lipids, water-soluble phospholipid precursors and products, and covalent modification of phosphorylation) that modulate ...
