  • Nov 2009
Bacterial FadL constitutes a family of transmembrane proteins involved in the transport of long-chain fatty acids and the uptake of hydrophobic compounds including aromatic hydrocarbon destined for biodegradation. Sequence analysis and tertiary structure prediction of three paralogous FadL proteins encoded by V. cholerae genome have been carried ou...

Context 1
... β-oxidation is an important catabolic process by which most organisms use fatty acids as energy and carbon sources. The sequential β-oxidation reactions shorten the saturated acyl-CoA by two carbons in each step to finally produce acetyl-CoA (Ac-CoA) 5 ( Figure 1). ...
