Interference by naturally occurring fatty acids in a noncellular enzyme-based aromatase bioassay.

J. Nat. Prod. 69 , 700-3, (2006)

Natural product drug discovery efforts frequently utilize noncellular screening assays. Fatty acids are commonly found in natural product extracts, and some have been shown to interfere with noncellular assays. Several pure fatty acids were tested using a non...

Regulation of the biosynthesis of 4,7,10,13,16-docosapentaenoic acid.

Biochem. J. 326 ( Pt 2) , 425-30, (1997)

It is now established that fatty acid 7,10,13,16-22:4 is metabolized into 4,7,10,13,16-22:5 as follows: 7,10,13,16-22:4-->9,12,15, 18-24:4-->6,9,12,15,18-24:5-->4,7,10,13,16-22:5. Neither C24 fatty acid was esterified to 1-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (1-...

The metabolism of 7,10,13,16,19-docosapentaenoic acid to 4,7,10,13,16,19-docosahexaenoic acid in rat liver is independent of a 4-desaturase.

J. Biol. Chem. 266(30) , 19995-20000, (1991)

The hypothesis that the last step in the biosynthesis of 4,7,10,13,16,19-22:6 from linolenate is catalyzed by an acyl-CoA-dependent 4-desaturase has never been evaluated by direct experimentation. When rat liver microsomes were incubated with [1-14C]7,10,13,1...

Inhibitory action of C22-fatty acids on DNA polymerases and DNA topoisomerases.

Int. J. Mol. Med. 18(4) , 583-8, (2006)

We reported previously that unsaturated linear-chain fatty acids of the cis-configuration with a C18-hydrocarbon chain such as linoleic acid (cis-9, 12-octadecadienoic acid, C18:2) could potently inhibit the activity of mammalian DNA polymerases (Biochim Biop...
