Iso- and anteiso-fatty acids in bacteria: biosynthesis, function, and taxonomic significance.
TLDR
Branched-chain fatty acids of the iso and anteiso series occur in many bacteria as the major acyl constituents of membrane lipids and are an important criterion used to aid identification and classification of bacteria.About:

Endocellular fatty acid composition during batch growth and sporulation of Bacillus thuringiensis kurstaki
TL;DR: Bacillus thuringiensis kurstaki (HD-1) was grown on two different complex media to study its fatty acid composition during vegetative growth and sporulation and in contrast to literature results, iso-even branched-chain fatty acids were found to predominate after early vegetative growing and throughout sporulation.

Mechanisms of food processing and storage-related stress tolerance in Clostridium botulinum.
TL;DR: This minireview encompasses the importance of C. botulinum as a food safety hazard and its central physiological characteristics related to food-processing and storage-related stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of increasing levels of stearidonic acid on methane production in a rumen in vitro system
TL;DR: In this article, Stearidonic acid (SDA; C18:4n-3), a highly polyunsaturated n-3 fatty acid, could have potential to reduce methane production.

Betina Galerani Rodrigues Alves,Arthur Z. Güth,Márcia Caruso Bícego,Salvador Airton Gaeta,Paulo Y. G. Sumida +4 more
TL;DR: For 13 months, a permanent sampling station on the inner shelf near Ubatuba in SE Brazil was used to monitor the sedimentary organic matter composition, benthic bacteria and macrofauna as discussed by the authors.

Fatty acid and polar lipid composition in the classification of Cellulomonas, Oerskovia and related taxa
TL;DR: Two-dimensional thin-layer chromatography showed that almost identical and very characteristic polar lipid patterns were given by all the organisms under study: the only major components were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosph atidylinositol and two phospho-glycolipids chromatographing similarly to, but distinguishable from, the mono- and diacyl phosphatidolinositols characteristic of Nocardia and other actinomycetes.

Lipids in the Classification and Identification of Coryneform Bacteria Containing Peptidoglycans Based on 2, 4-diaminobutyric Acid
M. D. Collins,Dorothy Jones +1 more
TL;DR: The results of the present study indicate that lipid markers may be of considerable value in the classification and identification of 2, 4-diaminobutyric acid-containing phytopathogenic and saprophytic coryneform bacteria.
