Abstract
Oxidative stress is a universal interpretation for the toxicity mechanism of nanoplastics to microalgae. However, there is a lack of deeper insight into the regulation mechanism in microalgae response to oxidative stress, thus affecting the prevention and control for nanoplastics hazard. The integrated analysis of transcriptomics and metabolomics was employed to investigate the mechanism for the oxidative stress response of Chlorella pyrenoidosa to nanoplastics and subsequently lock the according core pathways and driver genes induced. Results indicated that the linoleic acid metabolism, glycine (Gly)-serine (Ser)-threonine (Thr) metabolism, and arginine and proline metabolism pathways of C. pyrenoidosa were collectively involved in oxidative stress. The analysis of linoleic acid metabolism suggested that nanoplastics prompted algal cells to secrete more allelochemicals, thereby leading to destroy the immune system of cells. Gly-Ser-Thr metabolism and arginine and proline metabolism pathways were core pathways involved in algal regulation of cell membrane function and antioxidant system. Key genes, such as LOX2.3, SHM1, TRPA1, and proC1, are drivers of regulating the oxidative stress of algae cells. This investigation lays the foundation for future applications of gene editing technology to limit the hazards of nanoplastics on aquatic organism.

Abstract
The membrane composition of Zymomonas mobilis changed dramatically in response to growth temperature. With increasing temperature, the proportion of vaccenic acid declined with an increase in myristic acid, the proportion of phosphatidylcholine and cardiolipin increased with decreases in phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylglycerol, and the phospholipid/protein ratio of the membrane declined. These changes in membrane composition were correlated with changes in thermal tolerance and with changes in membrane fluidity. Cells grown at 20 degrees C were more sensitive to inactivation at 45 degrees C than were cells grown at 30 degrees C, as expected. However, cells grown at 41 degrees C (near the maximal growth temperature for Z. mobilis) were hypersensitive to thermal inactivation, suggesting that cells may be damaged during growth at this temperature. When cells were held at 45 degrees C, soluble proteins from cells grown at 41 degrees C were rapidly lost into the surrounding buffer in contrast to cells grown at lower temperatures. The synthesis of phospholipid-deficient membranes during growth at 41 degrees C was proposed as being responsible for this increased thermal sensitivity.

Abstract
Undecaprenyl phosphate is the essential lipid involved in the transport of hydrophilic motifs across the bacterial membranes during the synthesis of cell wall polymers such as peptidoglycan. A HPLC procedure was developed for the quantification of undecaprenyl phosphate and its two derivatives, undecaprenyl pyrophosphate and undecaprenol. During the exponential growth phase, the pools of undecaprenyl phosphate and undecaprenyl pyrophosphate were ca. 75 and 270 nmol/g of cell dry weight, respectively, in Escherichia coli, and ca. 50 and 150 nmol/g, respectively, in Staphylococcus aureus. Undecaprenol was detected in S. aureus (70 nmol/g), but not in E. coli (<1 nmol/g).

Abstract
In anaerobic ecosystems, acyl lipids are initially hydrolyzed by microbial lipases with the release of free fatty acids. Glycerol, galactose, choline, and other non-fatty acid components released during hydrolysis are fermented to volatile fatty acids by the fermentative bacteria. Fatty acids are not degraded further in the rumen or other parts of the digestive tract but are subjected to extensive biohydrogenation especially in the rumen. However, in environments such as sediments and waste digestors, which have long retention times, both long and short chain fatty acids are beta-oxidized to acetate by a special group of bacteria, the H2-producing syntrophs. Long chain fatty acids can also be degraded by alpha-oxidation. Biotransformation of bile acids, cholesterol, and steroids by intestinal microorganisms is extensive. Many rumen bacteria have specific growth requirements for fatty acids such as n-valeric, iso-valeric, 2-methylbutyric, and iso-butyric acids. Some species have requirements for C13 to C18 straight-chain saturated or monoenoic fatty acids for growth.

Abstract
A pharmacokinetic model was developed to describe the disposition of lead in the rat. The model can be used to predict the effect of acute high-dose as well as low-dose exposure to lead. These results suggest that the model should be able to predict the effect of chronic low-dose exposures as well. Plasma, bone, liver, and bile profiles were generated from this model using previously published data. The results obtained supported the existing theory that lead demonstrates a dose-dependent pharmacokinetic profile in the rat.

Abstract
Alkane-utilizing strains of Pseudomonas spp. were found to omega-oxidize hexanoate, 6-hydroxyhexanoate, and 6-oxohexanoate to adipic acid in 5, 30, and 90% molar yields, respectively, after induction with n-hexane. 6-Hydroxyhexanoate was identified as the immediate product of hexanoate omega-hydroxylation by whole cells and was further oxidized into adipic acid and an unexpected metabolite identified as 2-tetrahydrofuranacetic acid. This same metabolite, together with adipic acid, was also detected when similarly induced cells were incubated with hexanoate or 1,6-hexanediol, but not with 6-oxohexanoate (adipic semialdehyde). Cells grown on hexanoate and incubated with 6-hydroxyhexanoate were also found to accumulate 2-tetrahydrofuranacetic acid, which was not further degraded. Utilization of 6-hydroxyhexanoate for growth was restricted to those organisms also able to utilize adipate. Similar observations were made with 1,6-hexanediol serving as the carbon source and cells obtained from one organism, Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO, grown either on 1,6-hexanediol or 6-hydroxyhexanoate, were found to be well induced for both 6-oxohexanoate and adipate oxidation. The results indicate that 6-hydroxyhexanoate and 1,6-hexanediol are susceptible to both beta- and omega-oxidative attack; however, the former pathway appears to be of no physiological significance since it generates 2-tetrahydrofuranacetic acid as a nonmetabolizable intermediate, making omega-oxidation via adipate the exclusive pathway for degradation.

Abstract
A delay in the onset of accumulation of methylene hexadecanoic acid could be engendered in Pseudomonas denitrificans growing under limited oxygen conditions when the concentration of citrate but not the concentration of succinate in the medium was increased from 0.1 to 0.5%. Ascorbate, which specifically reduced a cytochrome component possessing a maximum absorbance at 551 nm, partially inhibited the accumulation of methylene hexadecanoic acid under conditions which otherwise led to maximal production. Limiting terminal cytochrome oxidase activity by controlling the oxygen supply, or by the use of low concentrations of the oxidase inhibitors cyanide or azide also prevented the accumulation of the fatty acid regardless of the nature or concentration of carbon source in the medium. Measurement of the levels of ATP, NAD and NADH as well as the steady state of reduction of respiratory components in vivo showed that the onset of accumulation of methylene hexadecanoic acid could be specifically correlated with the state of reduction of respiratory components. The uniqueness of succinate respiration in promoting the synthesis of cyclopropane synthetase (unsaturated-phospholipid methyltransferase (EC 2.1.1.16) under limited oxygen conditions could therefore be assigned to the high degree of oxidation of respiratory components observed under this condition.

Abstract
The cyclopropane fatty acid, methylene hexadecanoic acid, constituted from 1% to upwards of 30% of the total lipid fatty acids of the bacterium, Pseudomonas denitrificans. The amount of this component varied along with the levels of the enzyme, cyclopropane synthetase (unsaturated-phospholipid methyltransferase, EC 2.1.1.16). When P. denitrificans was grown on succinate in a culture medium saturated with oxygen, cyclopropane synthetase remained repressed while cell densities were low. As cell densities increased, the enzyme was induced and the activity rose to a maximum over a period of 4-6 h. Cyclopropane synthetase could also be induced by rapidly limiting the oxygen supply to cells growing in conditions where oxygen was in excess. This phenomenon was independent of the phase of growth and could be prevented by addition of chloramphenicol to the medium. Growth on glucose was also shown to repress the synthesis of cyclopropane synthetase under similar conditions. However, once maximum levels of cyclopropane synthetase were reached, they remained constant for at least the following 15 h irrespective of the source of carbon in the medium. Methylene hexadecanoic acid accumulated in a linear manner throughout this period until a maximum level was achieved, the rate of accumulation being related to the activity of cyclopropane synthetase detected in vitro. The rate of conversion of total fatty acid to methylene hexadecanoic acid was approximately 1.3-1.5% per h, the methylene hexadecanoic acid being metabolically stable - the relative percentage of methylene hexadecanoic acid to total fatty acid in repressed cells, falling linearly with increase in cell number. Repression of enzyme synthesis was further investigated by growing cells on various sources of carbon other than glucose. The results indicated that succinate was unique amongst tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediates in depressing cyclopropane synthetase under limited oxygen conditions.

Abstract
Membranes were prepared from four temperature range variants of Bacillus megaterium: one obligate thermophile, one facultative thermophile, one mesophile, and one facultative psychrophile, covering the temperature interval between 5 and 70 degrees C. The following changes in membrane composition were apparent with increasing growth temperatures: (i) the relative amount of iso fatty acids increased and that of anteiso acids decreased, the ratio of iso acids to anteiso acids being 0.34 at 5 degrees C and 3.95 at 70 degrees C, and the pair iso/anteiso acids thus seemed to parallel the pair saturated/unsaturated acids in their ability to regulate membrane fluidity; (ii) the relative/unsaturated acids in their ability to regulate membrane fluidity; (ii) the relative amount of long-chain acids (C16 to C18) increased fivefold over that of short-chain acids (C14 and C15) between 5 and 70 degrees C; (iii) the relative amount of phosphatidylethanolamine increased, and this phospholipid accordingly dominated in the thermophilic strains, whereas diphosphatidylglycerol was predominant in the two other strains; and (iv) the ratio of micromoles of phospholipid to milligrams of membrane protein increased three-fold between 5 and 70 degrees C. Moreover, a quantitative variation in membrane proteins was evident between the different strains. Briefly, membrane phospholipids with higher melting points and packing densities appeared to be synthesized at elevated growth temperatures.

Abstract
Triacyl-lysocardiolipin (triacyl-LCL) and diacyl-LCL were isolated from Acinetobacter sp. HO1-N, and their structures were determined by chemical, physical, and enzymatic procedures. Deacylation of triacyl-LCL and diacyl-LCL yielded bis-glycerylphosphorylglycerol. Periodate oxidation of both lysolipids was negative. Diglyceride and 2-monoglyceride resulted from the acetic acid hydrolysis of triacyl-LCL, whereas 2-monoglyceride was the sole product obtained from diacyl-LCL. Cardiolipin (CL)-specific phospholipase D treatment of triacyl-LCL yielded lysophosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidic acid. Pancreatic lipase treatment of CL yielded triacyl-LCL and diacyl-LCL. 31P nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry showed two resonance peaks separated by 40 HZ for CL, two overlapping peaks separated by 14 HZ for triacyl-LCL, and one peak for diacyl-LCL. The proportion of lysocardiolipin increased as a function of cell age, representing 2 to 3% of the total phospholipids in early- and mid-exponential growth, 5 to 7% in late-exponential growth, and 12% in the stationary growth phase.

Abstract
A phospholipase A1 activity that hydrolyzed cardiolipin to triacyl- and diacyl-lysocardiolipin was localized in outer membrane preparations derived from Acinetobacter sp. HO1-N. The specific activity of the enzyme derived from hexadecane-grown cells was 2.5 to 3 times higher than that derived from NBYE-grown cells. An apparent Km of 2.22 mM was determined, although inhibition kinetics resulted at the higher cardiolipin substrate concentrations. Optimal reaction conditions established on metal requirements. Enzyme activity was obligately dependent on Triton X-100 (0.5%) and was inhibited by cationic and anionic detergents. Cardiolipin-specific phospholipase D converted triacyl-lysocardiolipin to lysophosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidic acid. The specific activity of this enzyme was approximately 100 times greater than that reported for other membrane preparations derived from microorganisms.
