Stereoselectivity of several triacylglycerol lipases (EC 3.1.1.3) has been investigated in the enzymatic esterification of rac-1-O-octadecylglycerol with oleic acid in the presence of organic solvents, such as hexane. X-1(3)-O-Octadecylmonooleoylglycerols were the only products formed with most lipases; considerable proportions of

Novel mutual pro-drugs in which 2',3'-dideoxyinosine anti-HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) drug and 3-octadecyloxy-propane-1,2-diol anti-inflammatory drug were attached to the same molecule via different biodegradable linkages, were synthesized through two-step enzymatic transesterification by a commercial lipase in acetone.

Chronic feeding of 1-O-octadecyl-sn-glycerol (batyl alcohol) to patients suffering from congenital deficiency in tissue ether glycerolipids showed an increase in the plasmalogens content of their erythrocytes. However, nothing is known about the ether lipid content of other tissues in these

[Hydrogen-3] glycerol ether and [carbon-14] hexadecanol were infused into the mammary gland or jugular vein of cows in colostral or full phases of lactation to determine their relative rates of synthesis and degradation. Neutral alkylglycerols were both synthesized and cleaved

The enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of fatty aldehyde derived from ether glycerolipid catabolism has not been identified. To determine whether microsomal fatty aldehyde dehydrogenase (FALDH) is responsible, we investigated the metabolism of 1-O-[9, 10-(3)H-octadecyl]-glycerol ([(3)H]OG) in FALDH-deficient cultured cells
