Control of triglyceride synthesis by the intracellular level of long-chain acyl coenzyme A for lipid synthesis.

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

Candida lipolytica mutants defective in acyl coenzyme A synthetase I synthesized triglyceride to a markedly less extent than did the wild-type yeast, when grown on oleic acid. The synthesis of triglyceride was controlled by the level of long-chain acyl coenzyme A available for lipid synthesis, whereas the synthesis of phospholipids was hardly affected.
