Figure 1: Chemical characterization of the FadD products. These studies corroborate our earlier computational analysis of the presence of two distinct groups of FadD proteins, one of which activates ...
Medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (MCADD) is a genetic condition that prevents the body from breaking down fat stores for energy. It can be fatal without early diagnosis and treatment.
In previous work (D. Post-Beittenmiller, J. G. Jaworski, J. B. Ohlrogge [1991] J Biol Chem 266: 1858-1865), the in vivo acyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP) pools were measured in spinach (Spinacia ...
Acyl fluorides are organic compounds that contain a fluorine atom in their structure. These compounds have recently gained much attention in transition-metal catalysis due to their stability and ...
Human metabolism is a complex web of chemical processes and interactions between our cells and the microbes living within us. The more scientists can identify and classify the molecules involved in ...
Acyl carrier proteins (ACPs) are more important than they sound. Their name suggests they are simply biochemical beasts of burden. They indeed do carry substrates around and deliver them to different ...
Acyl add amido synthetases of the GH3 family act as critical prereceptor modulators of plant hormone action; however, the molecular basis for their hormone selectivity is unclear. Here, we report the ...
