However, whereas only the α-position isoprene subunit is saturated in eukaryal dolichol phosphate, both the α- and ω-position isoprene subunits are reduced in the archaeal lipid. The agents responsible for dolichol phosphate saturation remain largely unknown. The present study sought to identify dolichol phosphate reductases in the halophilic archaeon, Haloferax volcanii. Homology-based searches recognize HVO_1799 as a geranylgeranyl reductase. Mass spectrometry revealed that cells deleted of HVO_1799 fail to fully reduce the isoprene chains of H. volcanii membrane phospholipids and glycolipids. Likewise, the absence of HVO_1799 led to a loss of saturation of the ω-position isoprene subunit of C(55) and C(60) dolichol phosphate, with the effect of HVO_1799 deletion being more pronounced with C(60) dolichol phosphate than with C(55) dolichol phosphate. Glycosylation of dolichol phosphate in the deletion strain occurred preferentially on that version of the lipid saturated at both the α- and ω-position isoprene subunits.","is_dataset_classified":null,"base_score":3.044522437723423,"endowment":3.044522437723423,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"views":0,"has_version_chain":false,"is_dataset":false,"is_oa":false,"pmid":"22469971","pmcid":"PMC3340491","openalex_id":"https://openalex.org/W2004021364","authors":[],"funders":[{"funder_name":"NIGMS NIH HHS","grant_id":"R01 GM051310","title":null},{"funder_name":"NIGMS NIH HHS","grant_id":"GM-069338","title":null},{"funder_name":"NIGMS NIH HHS","grant_id":"U54 GM069338","title":null}],"total_grants":3,"fwci":0.7367,"citation_percentile":0.67887074,"influential_citations":0,"citation_trend":[{"year":2012,"count":2},{"year":2013,"count":1},{"year":2014,"count":2},{"year":2015,"count":1},{"year":2016,"count":1},{"year":2017,"count":1},{"year":2018,"count":2},{"year":2019,"count":1},{"year":2020,"count":6},{"year":2022,"count":1},{"year":2024,"count":2}],"oa_status":"closed","license":"https://doi.org/10.15223/policy-004","oa_locations":[{"url":"https://api.elsevier.com/content/article/PII:S1388198112000674?httpAccept=text/xml","host_type":"publisher"},{"url":"https://api.elsevier.com/content/article/PII:S1388198112000674?httpAccept=text/plain","host_type":"publisher"},{"url":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bbalip.2012.03.002","host_type":"journal"},{"url":"https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22469971","host_type":"repository"},{"url":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/3340491","host_type":"repository"}],"fields_of_study":["Plant biochemistry and biosynthesis","Microbial Natural Products and Biosynthesis","Microbial Metabolic Engineering and Bioproduction","Amino Acid Sequence","Archaeal Proteins","Butadienes","Cell Membrane","Chromatography, Liquid","Dolichol Phosphates","Gene Deletion","Glycolipids","Haloferax volcanii","Hemiterpenes","Membrane Lipids","Molecular Sequence Data","Oxidoreductases","Pentanes","Phospholipids","Sequence Homology, Amino Acid","Spectrometry, Mass, Electrospray Ionization","Tandem Mass Spectrometry"],"mesh_terms":["Amino Acid Sequence","Butadienes","Cell Membrane","Chromatography, Liquid","Dolichol Phosphates","Glycolipids","Membrane Lipids","Molecular Sequence Data","Oxidoreductases","Pentanes","Phospholipids","Gene Deletion","Sequence Homology, Amino Acid","Haloferax volcanii","Archaeal Proteins","Spectrometry, Mass, Electrospray Ionization","Hemiterpenes","Tandem Mass Spectrometry"],"keywords":["Haloferax volcanii","Dolichol","Isoprene","Biochemistry","Phosphate","Chemistry","Archaea","Glycosylation","Stereochemistry","Biosynthesis","Organic chemistry","Enzyme"],"sdg_mappings":[{"sdg_number":0,"sdg_label":"Life below water"}],"linked_datasets":[],"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"database_accessions":[],"source":"live","citation_network_status":"fetched"},"created_at":"2026-08-17T20:35:00.331774Z","pmid":null,"pmcid":null,"fwci":null,"citation_percentile":null,"influential_citations":0,"oa_status":null,"license":null,"views":0,"total_file_size_bytes":0,"version_count":0,"fair_f":null,"fair_a":null,"fair_i":null,"fair_r":null,"fair_zscore":null,"fair_rationale":null,"fair_model":null,"fair_agent_version":null,"fair_fulltext_source":null,"fair_has_llm":null,"fair_computed_at":null,"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"db_accessions":[],"linked_datasets":[],"topics":[]}
