Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Acyl-CoA:lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase (LPCAT; EC 2.3.1.23) catalyzes the acyl-CoA-dependent acylation of lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) to produce PC and CoA. LPCAT activity may affect the incorporation of fatty acyl moieties at the sn-2 position of PC where PUFA are formed and may indirectly influence seed TAG composition. LPCAT activity in microsomes prepared from microspore-derived cell suspension cultures of oilseed rape (Brassica napus L. cv Jet Neuf) was assayed using [1-14C]acyl-CoA as the fatty acyl donor. LPCAT activity was optimal at neutral pH and 35 degrees C, and was inhibited by 50% at a BSA concentration of 3 mg mL(-1). At acyl-CoA concentrations above 20 microM, LPCAT activity was more specific for oleoyl (18:1)-CoA than stearoyl (18:0)- and palmitoyl (16:0)-CoA. Lauroyl (12:0)-CoA, however, was not an effective acyl donor. LPC species containing 12:0, 16:0, 18:0, or 18:1 as the fatty acyl moiety all served as effective acyl acceptors for LPCAT, although 12:0-LPC was somewhat less effective as a substrate at lower concentrations. The failure of LPCAT to catalyze the incorporation of a 12:0 moiety from acyl-CoA into PC is consistent with the tendency of acyltransferases to discriminate against incorporation of this fatty acyl moiety at the sn-2 position of TAG from the seed oil of transgenic B. napus expressing a medium-chain thioesterase.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
