Biochem/physiol Actions

DL-3-Hydroxydodecanoic acid (3HDD) is a racemic mixture of D- and L-3HDD. 3-hydroxydodecanoic acid is found as a monomer in the construction of polyhydroxyalkanoates. 3HDD is used to study the roles of β-hydroxy fatty acids in chronic inflammation and insulin resistance and the biosynthesis of diffusible signal factors involved in quorum sensing.

To analyse the impurity of bacterium source of standard endotoxin, 3-hydroxy fatty acid species in different endotoxin standards was determined by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) using N, O-bis (trimethylsilyl) trifluoroacetamide as the silanizing reagent. GC/MS analysis was performed using a

The first step of lipid A biosynthesis is catalyzed by LpxA in Escherichia coli (EcLpxA), an acyltransferase selective for UDP-GlcNAc and R-3-hydroxymyristoyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP). Leptospira interrogans LpxA (LiLpxA) is extremely selective for R-3-hydroxylauroyl-ACP and an analogue of UDP-GlcNAc, designated

To produce extracellular chiral 3-hydroxyacyl acids (3HA) by fermentation, a novel pathway was constructed by expressing tesB gene encoding thioesterase II into Pseudomonas putida KTOY01, which was a polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) synthesis operon knockout mutant. 3HA mixtures of 0.35 g/l consisting
