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:

Cold-Shock Response and Adaptation to Near-Freezing Temperature in Cold-Adapted Yeasts
Masayori Inouye,Sangita Phadtare +1 more
TL;DR: The responses of the yeast cell to temperature downshift to 10 °C can be categorized into three phases, and it has been shown that the cold-induced accumulation of trehalose, glycerol, and HSPs plays a crucial role in protecting the yeast cells against freeze injury.

Fatty Acids of Chthonomonas calidirosea, of a Novel Class Chthonomonadetes from a Recently Described Phylum Armatimonadetes
TL;DR: Hydrogenation of X in acetic acid resulted in formation of straight chain 17:0, 5- methyl- and 6-methyl-16:0 fatty acid methyl esters, thus confirming the structure of a novel 5,6-methylene hexadecanoic acid.

Effect of a purification step and the type of internal standard used on fatty acid determination of grass and maize silages.
Susana P. Alves,Susana P. Alves,Ana R.J. Cabrita,António J.M. Fonseca,Rui J.B. Bessa,Rui J.B. Bessa +5 more
TL;DR: The fatty acid (FA) analysis of grass and maize silages was studied by application of a direct transesterification method (DT) followed by purification by solid-phase extraction (SPE) and the choice of the internal standard (IS) for quantification of FA by gas-liquid chromatography (GLC).

Structure determination of disease associated peak AAA from l-Tryptophan implicated in the eosinophilia-myalgia syndrome.
Klaus Klarskov,Hugo Gagnon,Pierre Luc Boudreault,Chad Normandin,Baptiste Plancq,Eric Marsault,Gerald J. Gleich,Stephen Naylor +7 more
TL;DR: It is determined that Peak AAA is in fact two structurally related isomers, and Peak AAA2 was determined to be a condensation product of L-Trp with decanoic acid, which produced (S)-2-amino-3-(2-((E)-dec-1-en- 1-yl)-1H-indol-3-yl)propanoic Acid.

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.

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.
