Effect of Ethanol on Triacylglycerol Synthesis in Chlorella Species Utilizing a Novel Fluorescence-Based Assay |
2010 |
3528 |
In this study, I set out to develop a novel method of assaying acyl-CoA: diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) activity employing a fluorescently labeled substrate, and then using that protocol to determine the effects of ethanol-induced stress on DG... |
The effects of environmental stressors on biofilm formation of Chlorella vulgaris |
2013 |
5169 |
Biofilm formation has been explored as a means of harvesting microalgae for bioprocessing applications. Recently, environmental stressors have been implicated in the induction of biofilm formation; however, it is unclear whether all stressors, or a s... |
Structural Elements Of Lipidic Inhibitors Of Phospholipase A2 |
2018 |
683 |
Phospholipases A2 (PLA2) are a family of enzymes that release fatty acids from phospholipids and play varied and important roles in the biology of all organisms. Secreted phospholipases A2 (sPLA2) are the largest subfamily of PLA2. sPLA2 expression l... |
Effects Of A Naturally Derived Lipid On Cell Viability And Inflammatory Signaling In The Presence Of Snake Venom |
2022 |
203 |
A lipid extract has demonstrated the ability to inhibit the activity of phospholipase A2 (PLA2) found in the snake venom of the Viperidae family. This research focused on studying the effect this lipid would have in cellular systems through viability... |
