Combined transgenic expression of Δ12-desaturase and Δ12-epoxygenase in high linoleic acid seeds leads to increased accumulation of vernolic acid

Only registered users can translate articles

The transgenic production of unusual fatty acids in oil seed crops offers an alternative, renewable resource for industry. However, transgenic expression of genes catalysing the synthesis of unusual fatty acids has generally resulted in these fatty acids accumulating at levels significantly below

The crystal structure of Arabidopsis thaliana allene oxide cyclase: insights into the oxylipin cyclization reaction.

Only registered users can translate articles

We describe the crystallization and structure elucidation of Arabidopsis thaliana allene oxide cyclase 2 (AOC2), a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of jasmonates. In a coupled reaction with allene oxide synthase, AOC2 releases the first cyclic and biologically active metabolite, 12-oxo-phytodienoic

The biosynthesis of cutin and suberin as an alternative source of enzymes for the production of bio-based chemicals and materials.

Oxygenated fatty acids such as ricinoleic acid and vernolic acid can serve in the industry as synthons for the synthesis of a wide range of chemicals and polymers traditionally produced by chemical conversion of petroleum derivatives. Oxygenated fatty acids can also be useful to synthesize specialty

Characterization of SCP-2 from Euphorbia lagascae reveals that a single Leu/Met exchange enhances sterol transfer activity.

Sterol carrier protein-2 (SCP-2) is a small intracellular basic protein domain implicated in peroxisomal beta-oxidation. We extend our knowledge of plant SCP-2 by characterizing SCP-2 from Euphorbia lagascae. This protein consists of 122 amino acids including a PTS1 peroxisomal targeting signal. It

Level of accumulation of epoxy fatty acid in Arabidopsis thaliana expressing a linoleic acid delta12-epoxygenase is influenced by the availability of the substrate linoleic acid.

Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. expressing the Crepis palaestina (L.) linoleic acid delta12-epoxygenase in its developing seeds typically accumulates low levels of vernolic acid (12,13-epoxy-octadec-cis-9-enoic acid) in comparison to levels found in seeds of the native C. palaestina. In order to

Expression of a Stokesia laevis epoxygenase gene.

Epoxy fatty acids have a number of important uses and there is interest in enzymes catalyzing their synthesis from renewable sources. Both cytochrome P450 monooxygenases and divergent forms of di-iron desaturases are known to produce epoxy fatty acids in plants. Degenerate primers based on conserved

The involvement of phospholipid:diacylglycerol acyltransferases in triacylglycerol production.

Only registered users can translate articles

We have characterized three CoA-independent types of enzyme, phospholipases, phospholipid:diacylglycerol acyltransferases (PDATs) and cholinephosphotransferases, responsible for the removal of unusual fatty acids from phosphatidylcholine (PC) in microsomal preparations from developing oil seeds.
