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:

Factors affecting odd- and branched-chain fatty acids in milk: A review
TL;DR: The potential of OBCFA as a diagnostic tool for rumen function is illustrated both in relation to nutrient supply and optimization of milk fatty acid composition and to dietary composition and rumen hydrogenation intermediates of dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids.
Deep-Sea Research II
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the Pakistan continental margin to assess the controls on organic matter deposition and quality along a transect through the OMZ from water depths of 140-1850 m.

P450BM3 (CYP102A1): connecting the dots
TL;DR: This review draws together the disparate research themes of P450(BM3) (CYP102A1) and places them in a historical context with the aim of creating a resource that can be used as a gateway to the field.
Journal ArticleDOI
Muricauda ruestringensis gen. nov., sp. nov., a facultatively anaerobic, appendaged bacterium from German North Sea intertidal sediment.
TL;DR: Evidence based on phenotypic characteristics and 16S rDNA analysis supports the conclusion that this bacterium is distinct from its nearest relative, Zobellia uliginosa, and from the other genera of the Flavobacteriaceae.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular indicators of diagenetic status in marine organic matter
TL;DR: The fluxes of individual carbohydrates, amino acids, lipids and pigments have been determined in net-plankton, particulate matter and sediments from three sites (9°N, 5°N and 0°N) in the central equatorial Pacific to evaluate sources and reactivities of organic compounds as mentioned in this paper.

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.
