The Lotus japonicus EST database was searched against Arabidopsis thaliana AtFAO3, a full-length cDNA that encodes a membrane-bound, flavin-containing, hydrogen peroxide generating, long-chain fatty alcohol oxidase. One EST fragment was detected, and the corresponding full-length cDNA was obtained
Medium-chain alcohols are used to produce solvents, surfactants, lubricants, waxes, creams, and cosmetics. In this study, we engineered the oleaginous yeast Yarrowia lipolytica to produce 1-decanol from glucose. Expression of a fatty acyl-CoA reductase from Arabidopsis thaliana in strains of Y.
Aliphatic alcohols naturally exist in many organisms as important cellular components; however, their roles in extracellular polymer biosynthesis are poorly defined. We report here the isolation and characterization of a rice (Oryza sativa) male-sterile mutant, defective pollen wall (dpw), which
