General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism a model for the biosynthesis of the outer membrane in Escherichia coli is presented. Lipopolysaccharide is an endotoxin that elicits a strong immune response from humans, and its biosynthesis is in part regulated via degradation of LpxC and WaaA enzymes by the protease FtsH. Addition of palmitic acid to the growth medium of wild-type Escherichia coli elevates the levels of LpxC by 1.7fold. Palmitoyl-CoA induces a strong inhibitory effect on FabI. Due to the inhibition of FabI, LpxC would be stabilized. Thus, elevated cellular palmitoyl-CoA concentrations has an opposite effect on LpxC stability than the free-form of palmitic acid Escherichia coli
