Starikov AY, Sidorov RA, Mironov KS, Los DA. The Specificities of Lysophosphatidic Acid Acyltransferase and Fatty Acid Desaturase Determine the High Content of Myristic and Myristoleic Acids in Cyanobacterium sp. IPPAS B-1200. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:774.

Abstract
The cyanobacterial strain Cyanobacterium sp. IPPAS B-1200 isolated from Lake Balkhash is characterized by high relative amounts of myristic (30%) and myristoleic (10%) acids. The remaining fatty acids (FAs) are represented mainly by palmitic (20%) and palmitoleic (40%) acids. We expressed the genes for lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase (LPAAT; EC 2.3.1.51) and Δ9 fatty acid desaturase (FAD; EC 1.14.19.1) from Cyanobacterium sp. IPPAS B-1200 in Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942, which synthesizes myristic and myristoleic acids at the level of 0.5-1% and produces mainly palmitic (~60%) and palmitoleic (35%) acids. S. elongatus cells that expressed foreign LPAAT synthesized myristic acid at 26%, but did not produce myristoleic acid, suggesting that Δ9-FAD of S. elongatus cannot desaturate FAs with chain lengths less than C16. Synechococcus cells that co-expressed LPAAT and Δ9-FAD of Cyanobacterium synthesized up to 45% palmitoleic and 9% myristoleic acid, suggesting that Δ9-FAD of Cyanobacterium is capable of desaturating saturated acyl chains of any length.

Abstract
Ex situ collections of algae, cyanobacteria, and plant materials (cell cultures, hairy and adventitious root cultures, shoots, etc.) maintained in vitro or in liquid nitrogen (-196 °C, LN) are valuable sources of strains with unique ecological and biotechnological traits. Such collections play a vital role in bioresource conservation, science, and industry development but are rarely covered in publications. Here, we provide an overview of five genetic collections maintained at the Institute of Plant Physiology of the Russian Academy of Sciences (IPPRAS) since the 1950-1970s using in vitro and cryopreservation approaches. These collections represent different levels of plant organization, from individual cells (cell culture collection) to organs (hairy and adventitious root cultures, shoot apices) to in vitro plants. The total collection holdings comprise more than 430 strains of algae and cyanobacteria, over 200 potato clones, 117 cell cultures, and 50 strains of hairy and adventitious root cultures of medicinal and model plant species. The IPPRAS plant cryobank preserves in LN over 1000 specimens of in vitro cultures and seeds of wild and cultivated plants belonging to 457 species and 74 families. Several algae and plant cell culture strains have been adapted for cultivation in bioreactors from laboratory (5-20-L) to pilot (75-L) to semi-industrial (150-630-L) scale for the production of biomass with high nutritive or pharmacological value. Some of the strains with proven biological activities are currently used to produce cosmetics and food supplements. Here, we provide an overview of the current collections' composition and major activities, their use in research, biotechnology, and commercial application. We also highlight the most interesting studies performed with collection strains and discuss strategies for the collections' future development and exploitation in view of current trends in biotechnology and genetic resources conservation.

Lipidomic Profile Analysis of Lung Tissues Revealed Lipointoxication in Pulmonary Veno-Occlusive Disease. Biomolecules 2022; 12:biom12121878. [PMID: 36551306 PMCID: PMC9775349 DOI: 10.3390/biom12121878] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Revised: 12/11/2022] [Accepted: 12/13/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Pulmonary veno-occlusive disease (PVOD) is a rare form of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) occurring in a heritable form (hPVOD) due to biallelic inactivating mutations of EIF2AK4 (encoding GCN2, general control nonderepressible 2) or in a sporadic form in older age (sPVOD), following exposure to chemotherapy or organic solvents. In contrast to PAH, PVOD is characterized by a particular remodeling of the pulmonary venous system and the obliteration of small pulmonary veins by fibrous intimal thickening and patchy capillary proliferation. The pathobiological knowledge of PVOD is poor, explaining the absence of medical therapy for PVOD. Lung transplantation remains the only therapy for eligible PVOD patients. As we recently demonstrated, respiratory diseases, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or cystic fibrosis exhibit lipointoxication signatures characterized by excessive levels of saturated phospholipids contributing to the pathological features of these diseases, including endoplasmic reticulum stress, pro-inflammatory cytokines production, and bronchoconstriction. In this study, we investigated and compared the clinical data and lung lipid signature of control (10 patients), idiopathic PAH (7 patients), heritable PAH (9 BMPR2 mutations carriers), hPVOD (10 EIF2AK4 mutation carriers), and sPVOD (6 non-carriers) subjects. Mass spectrometry analyses demonstrated lung lipointoxication only in hPVOD patients, characterized by an increased abundance of saturated phosphatidylcholine (PC) at the expense of the polyunsaturated species in the lungs of hPVOD patients. The present data suggest that lipointoxication could be a potential player in the etiology of PVOD.

[PMID: 36551223 PMCID: PMC9775110 DOI: 10.3390/biom12121795] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2022] [Revised: 11/25/2022] [Accepted: 11/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Fatty acid desaturases (FADs) play important roles in various metabolic and adaptive pathways in all living organisms. They represent a superfamily of oxygenases that introduce double bonds into the acyl chains of fatty acids (FAs). These enzymes are highly specific to the length of the carbon chain, position of double bonds formation, etc. The modes by which FADs "count" the position of the double bond formation may differ. In cyanobacteria, the first double bond is formed between 9th and 10th carbons (position Δ9), counting from the carboxylic end of an FA. Other FADs that produce polyunsaturated FAs may introduce double bonds counting from the carboxyl (Δ) or methyl (ω) terminus, or from a pre-existing double bond towards carboxyl or methyl terminus of an FA chain. Here, we expressed the desD gene for the Δ6-FAD from Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 in Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942 (which is capable of synthesizing only monoenoic FAs desaturated mainly at position Δ9) and observed the appearance of unusual monoenoic FAs desaturated at position Δ6, as well as Δ6,9 dienoic FAs. Exogenously added cis-10-heptadecenoic acid (17:1Δ10) was converted into cis-6,10-heptadecadienoic (17:2Δ6,10). These data demonstrate the ability of Δ6-FAD to introduce the first double bond into the unsaturated substrates and suggests that it "counts" from the carboxyl end, irrespective of the absence or presence of a previous double bond in an FA chain.

Abstract
Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) have beneficial roles in a variety of human pathologies and disorders. Owing to the limited source of PUFAs in animals and plants, microorganisms, especially fungi, have become a new source of PUFAs. In fungi, fatty acid desaturases (F-FADS) are the main enzymes that convert saturated fatty acids (SFAs) into PUFAs. Their catalytic activities and substrate specificities, which are directly dependent on the structure of the FADS proteins, determine their efficiency to convert SFAs to PUFAs. Catalytic mechanisms underlying F-FADS activities can be determined from the findings of the relationship between their structure and function. In this review, the advances made in the past decade in terms of catalytic activities and substrate specificities of the fungal FADS cluster are summarized. The relationship between the key domain(s) and site(s) in F-FADS proteins and their catalytic activity is highlighted, and the FADS cluster is analyzed phylogenetically. In addition, subcellular localization of F-FADS is discussed. Finally, we provide prospective crystal structures of F-FADSs. The findings may provide a reference for the resolution of the crystal structures of F-FADS proteins and facilitate the increase in fungal PUFA production for human health.
