The paper reviews data on the fatty acid composition of bacteria as a taxonomic criterion useful for the identification of bacteria and specifying their classification. Variations in the fatty acid composition of bacteria associated with culturing conditions and due largely to the adaptive role of fatty acids in the bacterial cell require that standard conditions be maintained while examining that character. In some cases, adjustment of culturing conditions may be a factor providing for the identification of specificities in the fatty acid profile of bacteria of related species. The use of data on the fatty acid composition of bacteria has promising applications in confirming and establishing their phylogenetic relationship, that being accomplished not only on the basis of similarity in the character under consideration which correlates with similarity in genotypic and other phenotypic characters, but by analyzing its adaptive variability as well. The latter approach is especially promising for creating a natural classification. It is pointed out that the determination of the fatty acid composition of the lipid component of lipopolysaccharides from Gram-negative bacteria is useful as it supplies additional taxonomic information. 相似文献

Fatty acid composition of lipids isolated from spores of different fern groups show differences between the families whereas species variations within the families are smaller. As in seed fats, the spore lipids are mainly triglycerides, with the exception of Osmunda where free fatty acids accumulate. The spore lipids contain as major components oleic, linoleic, and palmitic acid although those of the sporophylls contain C-20 polyunsaturated acids. 相似文献

Fatty acid composition of lipids which copurify with band 3 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In a previous study (L. R. Maneri and P. S. Low (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 16170-16178) we determined that the anion transport protein, band 3, was significantly stabilized by lipids containing saturated and/or long chain fatty acids. To determine whether this thermodynamic preference is reflected in the composition of lipids tightly associating with the anion transporter in vivo, we have analyzed the fatty acid content of phospholipids co-isolating with the purified integral domain of band 3. Our data demonstrate that although stearic acid comprises only 14% of the bulk lipid fatty acids of the red cell membrane, it constitutes -68% of the fatty acids of lipids co-isolating with band 3. Certain other long chain fatty acids were also enriched in the adherent lipids. These results suggest that the fatty acids which most effectively stabilize band 3 also have the highest affinity for the transport protein. 相似文献

The taxonomic importance of fatty acid composition at genus and sub-genus level was evaluated by analysing the fatty acid
composition of fourteen different Microcystis isolates and seven additional members of the order Chroococcales. Fatty acid composition proved to be consistent within isolates.
Isolates were clustered into two major groups, namely A and B. Group B contained all the Microcystis isolates and was further divided into subgroups of varying similarity indicating the existence of different taxa. The Microcystis isolates were characterised by a high content of polyunsaturated fatty acids (27–44%) and a low content of palmitoleate.
The test organisms were arranged in a scheme indicating their possible phylogenetic relationship based on fatty acid composition
and other phenotypic characteristics. According to our data the toxic strains, represented by different isolates, of Microcystis appear as a distinct group. Furthermore two dubious species namely Microcystis incerta and a Synechocystis sp. could clearly be reasigned to different genera. The results demonstrated that fatty acid composition is an effective
taxonomic tool in clarifying taxonomical problems of Microcystis isolates.

The comparative study of the fatty acid composition of bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) in the genera Escherichia, Shigella, Salmonella has been carried out under identical experimental conditions. The LPS of the bacteria under study have been found to contain a number of saturated fatty acids and oxyacids which could not be previously detected in these bacteria in other studies. In all bacterial strains under study LPS include mainly 3-oxytetradecanoic, tetradecanoic and dodecanoic fatty acids. The essential feature of the fatty acid composition of Salmonella is the presence of 2-oxytetradecanoic acid; this acid is absent in Escherichia and Shigella, which can thus be used as a differentiating criterion. The content of other fatty acids in Salmonella is similar to that in Escherichia and Shigella. These data confirm that the genera Escherichia, Shigella and Salmonella are phylogenetically related, the relationship between Escherichia and Shigella being more close. 相似文献

The models "population--Nocardia-like spontaneous mutants" for 14 cultures of Streptomycetes and Streptoverticillium were used to assess the fatty acid composition of lipids as a criterion for generic differentiation of Streptomyces and Nocardia cultures. The composition of fatty acids in the Nocardia-like mutant Str. kanamyceticus RIA-771 was found to be identical with that of Nocardia asteroides RIA-43 and Nocardia brasiliensis RIA-440, i. e. generic chemotaxonomic traits "overlapped" in the process of spontaneous intraspecial variability. In different strains of one and the same species as well as in five different species, the quantitative composition of fatty acids either hardly changed in the process of intraspecial variability or the ratio between fatty acids changed, so that Nocardia-like mutants resembled typical cultures of the Nocardia genus in this characteristics. The results suggest that the quantitative composition of fatty acids of lipids cannot be regarded as a sufficiently reliable criterion for generic differentiation of Steptomyces and Nocardia cultures. This trait should be used only for additional characterization of cultures. 相似文献

1. The fatty acid compositions of the plasma lipids of newborn unsuckled lambs, kids, calves and piglets have been determined and compared with those of maternal plasma lipids at parturition. 2. The predominating plasma fatty acids in the newborn of all species are palmitic acid, C(16:1) acid, stearic acid and C(18:1) acid. This finding is consistent with the synthesis of the major proportion of fatty acids from non-lipid sources within the foetus. 3. Very small amounts of C(18:2) acid and C(18:3) acid are present in the plasma lipids of newborn ruminants, although considerable amounts of these fatty acids are contained in maternal plasma. The plasma fatty acids of the newborn piglet contained 5.5% of C(18:2) acid, those of the calf 2.0%, and those of the lamb and kid less than 1.0%. This finding is discussed in relation to the higher content of C(18:2) acid in the plasma non-esterified fatty acid fraction of the sow (15%) compared with that of the ruminant (less than 4%). 4. In the lamb and kid, but not in the calf or piglet, a C(20:3) acid was detected in plasma lipids that was very similar to, if not identical with, the C(20:3) acid that accumulates in the plasma of animals given diets low in essential fatty acids. The possible significance of this finding is discussed. 5. The cholesteryl esters of cow plasma were found to contain a higher percentage (43%) of C(18:3) acid than those of goat and sheep plasma (5-10%). The possible reasons for this difference are discussed. 相似文献

The effect of boron availability on the content of fatty acids (FA) in the total lipids of needles was investigated in two-year-old seedlings of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.). The study was conducted in the forest nursery on the soil deficient in boron. Various rates of boric acid (0.01, 0.03, 0.1, 0.3, 1, 3, and 10 g/m2) were applied to soil three times throughout the growth period. When pine seedlings were supplied with extra boron, the lipid content of the seedling needles declined. The optimal boron supply elevated the content of saturated FA in total needle lipids mostly at the expense of palmitic acid, with a corresponding decline in the level of unsaturated FA and unsaturation index of FA owing to trienoic FA (mainly linolenic and hexadecatrienoic acids). At the same time, the level of monoenoic and to a lesser degree dienoic acids increased. When boron supply of the seedlings was not optimal, the content of unsaturated and low-molecular FA increased. 相似文献
