unsaturated fatty acid/oryza sativa

The 20mM cationic niosomes composed of Tween61/cholesterol/CTAB at 1:1:0.5M ratio which gave the best physical appearance, particle size, zeta potential and in vitro cytotoxicity were selected from six cationic niosomes prepared from various cationic lipids. The selected cationic niosomes were

Lipases are important biocatalysts showing many interesting properties with industrial applications. Previously, different isoforms of lipases, Lipase-I and Lipase-II from rice (Oryza sativa) have been purified and characterized. Lipase-II identified as the major lipase in rice bran is designated as

Unsaturated fatty acids are synthesized by fatty acid desaturase in plant, which play an important role in plant development and defense to abiotic stresses. The key enzymes for the conversion of oleic into linoleic acid were isolated from rice (Oryza sativa L.) and were designated OsFAD2 and

Inappropriate application of pesticide often triggers molecular alterations in crops, which inadvertently disturbs metabolites and finally affects crop quality. Therefore, understanding the mechanism of action of pesticides on crops is essential for evaluating the potential environmental impact of

A high-resistant starch (RS) and low-glutelin diet is beneficial for the health of patients with diabetes and kidney diseases. Rice is an important food crop worldwide. Previous studies demonstrated that downregulating the expression of rice starch branching enzyme IIb (SBEIIb) affected the

BACKGROUND Sake is made from fermented rice and has been drunk in Japan for more than 1000 years. The rice must be polished prior to fermentation to obtain high-quality sake. It is traditionally recognized that the quality of sake is improved as the rice polishing ratio (percentage removed in the

Fatty acid desaturases can catalyze saturated or unsaturated fatty acids to form a double bond at various locations in the hydrocarbon chain. In the present study, a total of 20 full-length desaturase genes were identified from rice genome. An exhaustive analysis was performed to describe their

The metabolism of lipids, like that of other components, was adversely and strongly affected when rice (Oryza sativa L.) coleoptiles were grown anaerobically. In aerobic coleoptiles, the amounts of total fatty acid, phospholipid, and total lipid per coleoptile increased by 2.5- to 3-fold between

Adaptational changes occurring in the lipids and fatty acids of the cell and the thylakoid membrane in response to high light treatment, was studied in 30 days old rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. Jyothi) plants grown under low (150-200 μmol m(-2) s(-1)) or moderate (600-800 μmol m(-2) s(-1)) light

Scented (joha) and black rice indigenous to northeast region (NER) of India are the two among 40,000 varieties of species Oryza sativa, prevalent for its great aroma, medicinal property, and/or equally noteworthy taste. Biochemical and target-based liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LCMS)

To elucidate the resistance of high-yield hybrid rice (Oryza sativa L.) at the seedling stage to low temperature, photosynthetic characteristics, such as membrane lipid peroxidation, fatty acid composition, and chloroplast ultrastructure, were investigated in a newly developed super-hybrid rice

A computational study was carried out to identify the structural determinant controlling the affinity, specificity and binding strength of several saturated and unsaturated fatty acids with Oryza sativa (Indica group) nonspecific lipid transfer protein (nsLTP2). Association between the number,
