High-value oils from plants.

TL;DR: This review describes several areas where plant oils can have a significant impact on the emerging bioeconomy and the types of fatty acids that are required in these various applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Variations in the biosynthesis of seed-storage lipids.

TL;DR: The current knowledge of the metabolic mechanisms involved in the divergence from the membrane-lipid biosynthetic pathway during storage lipid formation is presented and sequence information for genes encoding most of the enzymes involved is available.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry methods for structural analysis of fatty acids.

TL;DR: A novel application of the latter technique, involving a base-deactivated stationary phase and acetonitrile as mobile phase, is described that is suited to the separation of fatty acids in the form of picolinyl ester and dimethyloxazoline derivatives, as well as methyl esters.

Identification of Non-Heme Diiron Proteins That Catalyze Triple Bond and Epoxy Group Formation

TL;DR: In this article, plant enzymes that catalyze the formation of the Delta12 acetylenic bond in 9-octadecen-12-ynoic acid and the Delta-12 epoxy group in 12,13-epoxy-9-Octadecenoic acid were characterized, and two genes, similar in sequence, were cloned.

The chemical constitution of natural fats.

TL;DR: In this article, a brief summary of the composition of the natural fats which come within the scope of a discussion upon the subject of triglyceride fats in human nutrition is given, by considering, first, typical compositions of human and other,mammalian fats (depot, liver and milk) and, subsequently, the compositions of the vegetable and marine animal fats which are most commonly utilized as sources of human dietary fat.

The chemical nature of the toxic compounds containing fluorine in the seeds of Dichapetalum toxicarium.

TL;DR: The present paper describes an alternative method of preparing gram quantities of the pure fluoro fatty acid, and the determination of its structure as fluoro-oleic acid (w-fluoro-c8s-A9-octadecenoic acid).
