Biosynthesis of iso-fatty acids in myxobacteria.

Org. Biomol. Chem. 3 , 2824-2831, (2005)

The fatty acid (FA) profiles of the myxobacteria Stigmatella aurantiaca and Myxococcus xanthus were investigated by acidic methanolysis of total cell extracts and GC or GC-MS analysis. The main components were 13-methyltetradecanoic acid (iso-15:0) and (Z)-he...

Iso- and anteiso-fatty acids in bacteria: biosynthesis, function, and taxonomic significance.

Microbiol. Rev. 55 , 288-302, (1991)

Branched-chain fatty acids of the iso and anteiso series occur in many bacteria as the major acyl constituents of membrane lipids. In addition, omega-cyclohexyl and omega-cycloheptyl fatty acids are present in several bacterial species. These two types of fat...

Equivalent chain lengths of all C4-C23 saturated monomethyl branched fatty acid methyl esters on methylsilicone OV-1 stationary phase.

J. Chromatogr. A. 1218 , 1767-1774, (2011)

Isomer mixtures of monomethyl branched saturated C7-C23 fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) were prepared by performing a methylene insertion reaction to the straight chain FAME and this study model was completed by using commercially available standards of C4-C7...
