pathways of lipid synthesis: starting with LC (C –18) FAs synthesized in plastids, the eukaryotic pathway of lipid synthesis in plants at the ER where elongation, acyl editing, and lipid assembly take place. Glycerolipid biosynthesis in plants proceeds through two major pathways compartmentalized in the chloroplast and the endoplasmic reticulum ([ER][1]). All of these fatty acids can have industrial and/or pharmaceutical applications.

Regulation of the AtLPP1 gene in response to stress. These herbicides stop the waxy cuticle from forming properly and they may cause cells to develop abnormally or inhibit cell division. In chloroplasts, PG is generated in the inner membrane of the envelope where phosphatidylglycerol-phosphate synthase and phosphatidylglycerol-phosphate phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.27) activities have been detected [43]. Diacylglyceryltrimethylhomo-Ser (DGTS) is an abundant lipid in the membranes of many algae, lower plants, and fungi.

The multisubunit (MS complex) ACCase, present in plastids of all plants, except Poaceae and Geraniaceae, is involved in de novo fatty acid synthesis [13]. The plants synthesize ethanolamine by decarboxylation of serine [45], by serine decarboxylase which is a soluble, plant-specific enzyme. Recently, plant oils are gathering keen interest as a source of renewable energy according to rapid increase in social demands for establishing a low-carbon-society. Two enzyme systems are required for fatty acid formation: acetyl CoA carboxylase (ACCase, EC 6.4.1.2) of which two forms have been identified in plants [10] and fatty acid synthase which is a multienzyme complex present in the stroma of chloroplasts [11]. Their biosynthesis occurs at the ER membrane during the storage accumulation phase after embryogenesis.

There are various types of phospholipids; consequently, their synthesis pathways differ. VI. PI synthesis is catalyzed by PI synthase from free inositol and CDP-DAG. This pathway is characterized by the presence of molecular species 18: 3/16: 3 MGDG [23]. The prokaryotic pathway is distinguished from the eukaryotic one by the presence of C16 fatty acids at the sn-2 position of the glycerol backbone. After the initial condensation of acetyl CoA and malonyl-ACP, all the intermediates for each step of the fatty acid biosynthetic pathway are acyl-ACPs. Fatty acids in cell membranes consist mainly of palmitic, stearic, oleic, linoleic, and linolenic acids. compound biosynthesis in Arabidopsis.

The DAG thus produced (18/16 DAG) is at the origin of the glycolipids of prokaryotic structure, SQDG, MGDG, and DGDG (Figure 5). The ω9 desaturase is much more active on the palmitoyl residue in the sn2 position of glycerol of the MGDG than on the one located in the position sn2 of the DGDG. We share our knowledge and peer-reveiwed research papers with libraries, scientific and engineering societies, and also work with corporate R&D departments and government entities.
