绿色巴夫藻脂肪酸去饱和酶的克隆和初步研究

在高等植物中,Δ9 脂肪酸去饱和酶引入第一个双键到饱和的脂肪酸链中,导致单不饱和脂肪酸的形成。我们通过RT-PCR、RNA ligase mediated RACE (RLM-RACE) and Overlap-PCR方法从海洋微藻绿色巴夫藻中克隆到一个命名为PvfadA的脂肪酸去饱和酶候选基因。通过将PvfadA基因在大肠杆菌表达系统中成功表达,PvFadA可以特异性地将C18:0脂肪酸转变成C18:1脂肪酸。PvFadA的氨基酸序列中存在一个存在于acyl-ACP去饱和酶的特异性金属离子结合区段(D/E)X2HX-100(D/E)X2H。通过同源模建PvFadA的3D结构显示,其包含了11个α螺旋,其中α3、α4、α6和α7组成了一个4个螺旋桶的核心结构,预测其可能是酶的活性中心。PvFadA的3D结构类似于蓖麻和结核分枝杆菌H37Rv的acyl-ACP去饱和酶。     

Characterization of Aspergillus species based on fatty acid profiles

Cellular fatty acid (FA) composition was utilized as a taxonomic tool to discriminate between different Aspergillus species. Several of the tested species had the same FA composition and different relative FA concentrations. The most important FAs were palmitic acid (C16:0), estearic acid (C18:0), oleic acid (C18:1) and linoleic acid (C18:2), which represented 95% of Aspergillus FAs. Multivariate data analysis demonstrated that FA analysis is a useful tool for differentiating species belonging to genus Aspergillus. All the species analyzed showed significantly FA acid profiles (p < 0.001). Furthermore, it will be possible to distinguish among Aspergillus spp. in the Flavi Section. FA composition can serve as a useful tool for the identification of filamentous fungi.

Inter-and intraspecific differences in fatty acid composition of freshwater crustacean zooplankton

1. The composition of fatty acids (FA) from C14 to C18 was measured for edible seston and for individual Daphnia galeata , Diaphanosoma brachyurum and Eodiaptomus japonicus from Lake Biwa using a pyrolysis–gas chromatography (Py–GC) method. Based on the relative abundance of the FA, inter-and intraspecific differences in composition were examined.
2. Among the FA, C16 : 0 was the most abundant, both in the three zooplankton species and in edible seston smaller than 20 μm, suggesting that the composition of the zooplankton was roughly reflected by their diet. However, the abundance of C18 : 1 relative to C16 : 1 and C18 : 0 was much higher in each zooplankton species than in the diet.
3. Comparison of the relative abundance of FA among the three zooplankton species revealed that intraspecific differences in FA composition are greater than interspecific differences. These results indicate that variability in FA composition is not necessarily species-specific, and can be obscured by variation in composition between individuals.     

Online prediction of fatty acid profiles in crossbred Limousin and Aberdeen Angus beef cattle using near infrared reflectance spectroscopy

The objective of this study was to examine the online use of near infrared reflectance (NIR) spectroscopy to estimate the concentration of individual and groups of fatty acids (FA) as well as intramuscular fat (IMF) in crossbred Aberdeen Angus (AA×) and Limousin (LIM×) cattle. This was achieved by direct application of a fibre-optic probe to the muscle immediately after exposing the meat surface in the abattoir at 48 h post mortem. Samples of M. longissimus thoracis from 88 AA× and 106 LIM× were scanned over the NIR spectral range from 350 to 1800 nm and samples of the M. longissimus lumborum were analysed for IMF content and FA composition. Statistically significant differences (P < 0.001) were observed in most FA between the two breeds studied, with FA concentration being higher in AA× meat mainly. NIR calibrations, tested by cross-validation, showed moderate to high predictability in LIM× meat samples for C16:0, C16:1, C18:0, trans11 C18:1, C18:1, C18:2 n-6, C20:1, cis9, trans11 C18:2, SFA (saturated FA), MUFA (monounsaturated FA), PUFA (polyunsaturated FA) and IMF content with R(2) (SE(CV), mg/100 g muscle) of 0.69 (146), 0.69 (28), 0.71 (62), 0.70 (8.1), 0.76 (192), 0.65 (13), 0.71 (0.9), 0.71 (2.9), 0.68 (235), 0.75 (240), 0.64 (17) and 0.75 (477), respectively. FA such as C14:0, C18:3 n-3, C20:4 n-6, C20:5 n-3, C22:6 n-3, n-6 and n-3 were more difficult to predict by NIR in these LIM× samples (R(2) = 0.12 to 0.62; SECV = 0.5 to 26 mg/100 g muscle). In contrast, NIR showed low predictability for FA in AA× beef samples. In particular for LIM×, the correlations of NIR measurements and several FA in the range from 0.81 to 0.87 indicated that the NIR spectroscopy is a useful online technique for the early, fast and relatively inexpensive estimation of FA composition in the abattoir.     

Analysis of fatty acid composition of Candida species by gas-liquid chromatography using a polar column

The fatty acid composition of representative Candida species was examined by gas-liquid chromatography (GLC) using a polar column. The major fatty acids were C14:0, C16:0, C18:0 saturated, C16:1 and C18:1 monoenoic series, with or without C18 polyunsaturated acids (C18:2 and C18:3). In Torulopsis glabrata and Saccharomyces cerevisiae the C18:2 and C18:3 acids were not found, but the C10:0 and C12:0 acids were detected in S. cerevisiae. These results indicated that the Candida genus could be distinguished from Torulopsis and Saccharomyces genera by GLC analysis of fatty acids. Quantitative differences in the fatty acid composition between cells grown at high temperature (37 degrees C) and low temperature (25 degrees C) were found generally in Candida species, and the amounts of C18 polyunsaturated acids (C18:2 and C18:3) increased in the cells grown at 25 degrees C. Each Candida species showed a characteristic profile in fatty acid composition. Determination of the cellular fatty acid composition in Candida species is likely to be useful for the grouping or chemotaxonomy of newer isolates of Candida species.     

Incorporation of newly synthesized fatty acids into cytosolic glycerolipids in pea leaves occurs via acyl editing

In expanding pea leaves, over 95% of fatty acids (FA) synthesized in the plastid are exported for assembly of eukaryotic glycerolipids. It is often assumed that the major products of plastid FA synthesis (18:1 and 16:0) are first incorporated into 16:0/18:1 and 18:1/18:1 molecular species of phosphatidic acid (PA), which are then converted to phosphatidylcholine (PC), the major eukaryotic phospholipid and site of acyl desaturation. However, by labeling lipids of pea leaves with [(14)C]acetate, [(14)C]glycerol, and [(14)C]carbon dioxide, we demonstrate that acyl editing is an integral component of eukaryotic glycerolipid synthesis. First, no precursor-product relationship between PA and PC [(14)C]acyl chains was observed at very early time points. Second, analysis of PC molecular species at these early time points showed that >90% of newly synthesized [(14)C]18:1 and [(14)C]16:0 acyl groups were incorporated into PC alongside a previously synthesized unlabeled acyl group (18:2, 18:3, or 16:0). And third, [(14)C]glycerol labeling produced PC molecular species highly enriched with 18:2, 18:3, and 16:0 FA, and not 18:1, the major product of plastid fatty acid synthesis. In conclusion, we propose that most newly synthesized acyl groups are not immediately utilized for PA synthesis, but instead are incorporated directly into PC through an acyl editing mechanism that operates at both sn-1 and sn-2 positions. Additionally, the acyl groups removed by acyl editing are largely used for the net synthesis of PC through glycerol 3-phosphate acylation.     

An evaluation of the diet of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Mysis relicta</Emphasis> using gut contents and fatty acid profiles in lakes with and without the invader <Emphasis Type="Italic">Bythotrephes longimanus</Emphasis> (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Onychopoda,Cercopagidae</Emphasis>)

Diets of Mysis relicta from four lakes in central Ontario that had been invaded by Bythotrephes longimanus and three lakes that had not been invaded were investigated using gut content analysis and fatty acid (FA) composition. Gut content analysis of M. relicta revealed a high incidence of cannibalism in all lakes, and consumption of B. longimanus and native zooplanktivorous midges in the genus Chaoborus in lakes where these were present. Cladocera other than B. longimanus were present in the guts of all M. relicta examined except those from Bernard Lake, the lake with the most B. longimanus. In that lake, B. longimanus was the most frequent diet item. Copepod remains were found in 60–100% of M. relicta guts with the lowest frequency occurring in Bernard Lake. Fatty acids (FA) that contributed strongly to the variation in FA composition in M. relicta, as revealed by a principal component analysis, were C16:0 (palmitic acid), C16:1n7 (palmitoleic acid), C18:1n9c (oleic acid), C20:4n6 (arachidonic acid), C20:5n3 (eicosapentaenoic acid), and C22:6n3 (docosahexaenoic acid). Significant differences in FA amount and composition of M. relicta were found between invaded and non-invaded lakes, and among lakes within these groups. Generally, M. relicta in non-invaded lakes had higher concentrations of C16:0, C18:1n9c, C18:2n6c (linoleic acid), C18:3n3 (α-linolenic acid) and C20:4n6, while M. relicta in invaded lakes had higher concentrations of C22:6n3. Two of the non-invaded lakes had lower water transparency, as measured by Secchi depth, which may be the reason why mysids and abundant populations of Chaoborus spp. could be found in the water column during the day. However, differences in FA profiles and gut contents of M. relicta between invaded and non-invaded lakes are consistent with competition for Cladocera in the presence of the invader rather than pre-existing differences among lakes. We conclude that the diet of M. relicta is affected by the invasion of B. longimanus.     

9 cis,11 trans conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) is synthesised and desaturated into conjugated 18:3 in bovine adipose tissues

Although endogenous synthesis of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) in the mammary gland of lactating cows has been already well documented, no study has determined so far as to which tissue and/or organ is involved in CLA synthesis in the growing ruminant except one study showing that CLA synthesis does not occur in ruminant liver. In this context, adipose tissue appears to be a good candidate for endogenous synthesis of CLA in the growing ruminant. The aim of this study was to compare the respective metabolisms of 11trans 18:1 (vaccenic acid, VA) and 9cis,11trans 18:2 (rumenic acid) to that of stearic acid (the preferential substrate of Δ9 desaturase) in adipose tissues (subcutaneous, SC and intermuscular, IM) of six Charolais steers by using the in vitromethod of incubated tissue slices. Samples of SC and IM adipose tissues were incubated at 37°C for 16 h under an atmosphere of 95% O2/5% CO2 in a medium supplemented with 0.75 mM of fatty acid (FA) mixture (representative of circulating non-esterified FA) and 186 μM [1-14C]-18:0 or 58.6 μM [1-14C]-VA or 56 μM [1-14C]-9cis,11trans CLA. Viability of explants was verified by measuring metabolic functions (glucose uptake and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity). After 16 h of incubation, FA uptake was similar for all FA (18:0, VA and 9cis,11trans 18:2) in both SC and IM adipose tissues (around 40%). Once in adipose tissue, all FA were preferentially esterified (>80% of cell FA) favouring neutral lipid synthesis (around 90% of esterified FA). Stearic acid was highly (27%) desaturated into oleic acid in SC adipose tissue whereas this desaturation was much lower (6.8%) in IM adipose tissue (P < 0.0001). VA was desaturated into 9cis,11trans CLA at a low extent of about 2.5% to 4.4% in both adipose tissues probably because of a limited affinity of Δ9 desaturase for VA. 9cis,11trans CLA was itself converted by desaturation into 6cis, 9cis,11trans 18:3 at the intensity of 10.8% and 14.5% of cell 9cis,11trans CLA in SC and IM adipose tissues, respectively. In conclusion, bovine adipose tissues of the growing ruminant were especially involved in the endogenous synthesis of CLA from VA and in its desaturation into conjugated derivative, mainly 6cis, 9cis,11trans 18:3, of which biological properties need to be elucidated.     

Reduction in the stearic to oleic acid ratio in leukaemic cells--a possible chemical marker of malignancy

Total lipid extracts of peripheral blood cells from patients with chronic leukaemias were analysed for relative values of saturation of the eighteen carbon chain length fatty acids (C 18 FA). The results are expressed as saturation index (C 18 S:C 18 U) of the saturated C 18 FA (stearic acid) over the unsaturated C 18 FA (oleic, linoleic and linolenic acids). The saturation indices of the white blood cells (WBC) and the red blood cells (RBC) in specimens from 14 patients with chronic granulocytic leukaemia (CGL) and 17 patients with chronic lymphocytic leukaemias (CLL) were significantly and consistently lower than control specimens. It is proposed that the relative increase in the unsaturated oleic acid could prove to be a chemical marker of malignancy reflecting a deficient cellular control of the process of stearic acid desaturation. The theoretical implications of the implied increase in membrane fluidity for the cells are discussed.     

Fatty acid analysis of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia clinical strains showing different susceptibility to antibiotics at 30 and 37 degrees C

Isolates of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia species display the feature "temperature-dependent susceptibility" (TDS) to antibiotics. Both 30TDS strains (at least 4 times lower value of minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of an antibiotic at 30 than at 37 degrees C) and 37TDS strains (at least 4 times lower value of MIC at 37 than at 30 degrees C) were described. Changes in the distribution of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids (FA) at 30 and 37 degrees C were considered as one of possible causes of the TDS phenomenon. Gas chromatography was used to determine the distribution of individual FA in five 37TDS strains of S. maltophilia (Group I); in five strains with MIC values unaffected by the cultivation temperature (Group II) and in six 30TDS (four strains) or 30/37TDS (two strains) isolates (Group III). At identical temperatures, no statistically significant differences in the distribution of major FA (iso-15:0, anteiso-15:0, 16:0 and 16:1) were registered between individual groups. Statistically significant (p < 0.05) differences between groups were found in minor FA only (iso-16:0, iso-17:0 and iso-17:1). Distribution changes of cellular FA at 30 and 37 degrees C can be considered to play only a minor role in the formation of the TDS phenomenon.
