Inositol starvation of auxotrophic yeast interrupts glycolipid biosynthesis and prevents lipid
modification of a normally glycosyl phosphatidylinositol (GPI)‐linked protein, Gas1p. The …

CTP synthase (CTPS) is an important metabolic enzyme that catalyzes the rate-limiting
reaction of nucleotide CTP de novo synthesis. Since 2010, a series of studies have …

Lipids are rapidly moving to centre stage in many fields of biological sciences. Lipidomics,
the systems‐level scale analysis of lipids and their interacting factors, is thus an emerging …

Phosphatidylcholine is the major phospholipid in eukaryotic cells. It serves as a structural
component of cell membranes and a reservoir of several lipid messengers. Recent studies …

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae DGK1 gene encodes a diacylglycerol kinase enzyme that
catalyzes the formation of phosphatidate from diacylglycerol. Unlike the diacylglycerol …

Galactolipids (MGDG and DGDG), sulfolipid and phosphatidylglycerol are the main
constituents of plastid membranes. Glycerolipid biosynthesis requires first the assembly of …

Glyoxysomes in cotyledons of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum, L.) seedlings enlarge
dramatically within 48 h after seed imbibition (Kunce, CM, RN Trelease, and DC Doman …

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, genes encoding phospholipid-synthesizing enzymes are
regulated by inositol and choline (IC). The current model suggests that when these …

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae SCS2 gene has been cloned as a suppressor of inositol
auxotrophy of CSE1 and hac1/ire15 mutants (J. Nikawa, A. Murakami, E. Esumi, and K …

A repeated element, the inositol-sensitive upstream activation sequence (UAS INO), having
the consensus sequence, 5′-CATGTGAAAT-3′, is present in the promoters of genes …
