The discovery tL'at the SEC14p is the yeast PITP has led to the convergence of two
experimental lines of inquiry that had originally appeared to involve independent issues in …

The structure gene encoding CDP-diacylglycerol—inositol 3-phosphatidyltransferase was
isolated by complementation in a Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant after transformation …

Evidence is presented that demonstrates that phosphatidylserine synthase
(CDPdiacylglycerol: L-serine O-phosphatidyltransferase, EC 2.7. 8.8) from Saccharomyces …

The single cell eukaryote Saccharomyces cerevisiae is an attractive model to study the
complex process of neutral lipid (triacylglycerol and steryl ester) synthesis, storage and …

Biosynthesis and storage of nonpolar lipids, such as triacylglycerols (TG) and steryl esters
(SE), have gained much interest during the last decades because defects in these …

Publisher Summary This chapter provides an overview of eukaryotic phospholipid
biosynthesis. Phospholipids make up the essential milieu of cellular membranes and act as …

(cytidine 5'-diphospho-1, 2-diacyl-sn-glycerol: myo-inositol 3-phosphatidyltransferase, EC …

The terminal step of triacylglycerol (TAG) formation in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is
catalyzed by the enzyme acyl-CoA: diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DAGAT). In this study we …

To precisely define the functional sequence of the CHO1 gene from Saccharomyces
cerevisiae, encoding the regulated membrane-associated enzyme phosphatidylserine …

The wild-type yeast nuclear gene, PIS, encodes phosphatidylinositol synthase
