Data on the influence of the double bond geometry on the antimicrobial properties of different isomers of etherolenic acid against phytopathogenic bacteria are presented. (ω5Z)-Etherolenic acid possesses bactericidal properties against Xanthomonas campestris ssp. vesicatoria, Pseudomonas syringae ssp. tomato, Pectobacterium atrosepticum SCRI1043; the etherolenic and (11Z)-etherolenic acids possess only bacteriostatic properties.

Abstract. The CYP74B subfamily of fatty acid hydroperoxide transforming enzymes includes 13-hydroperoxide specific hydroperoxide lyases (HPLs) and divinyl ether synthases (DESs). The objects of the present work are the recombinant CYP74B3 (Solanum tuberosum), CYP74B4v1 (Medicago sativa), CYP74B6 (Cucumis sativus), and CYP74B16 (Linum usitatissimum) enzymes. Along with major products these enzymes produced oxiranyl carbinols. The preferred substrates of these enzymes are 13-hydroperoxides of linoleic and α-linolenic acids.

This paper presents data on the characteristics of double function enzymes of the CYP74C subfamily and their mutant forms.
