  2. 1. The type-I acyl-CoA thioesterase/acyltransferase gene family : linking structure to function

    Author : James O'Byrne; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Type-I acyl-CoA thioesterase acyltransferase gene family; structure function relationship; nueleophilic elbow; esterase transferase activity;

    Abstract : Acyl-CoA thioesterases hydrolyse acyl-CoAs to non-esterified fatty acids and coenzyme A (CoASH), thereby regulating intracellular levels of these compounds. We have recently identified and initiated characterisation of a novel, unique gene family of acyl-CoA thioesterases/acyltransferases, called the Type-I acyl-CoA thioesterase/acyltransferase gene family.

  4. 2. Acetylation of polysaccharides in plant cell wall : with a focus on woody species

    Author : Prashant Mohan Pawar; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Plant cell wall in woody tissues is a complex matrix, which consists of cellulose, matrix polysaccharides and lignin. The matrix polysaccharides are substituted with acetyl group that are hypothesised to play important roles in determining properties of these polysaccharides. READ MORE
