Abstract

A variety of eubacteria, plants, and protozoa can modify membrane lipids by cyclopropanation, which is reported to modulate membrane permeability and fluidity. The ability to cyclopropanate membrane lipids has been associated with resistance to oxidative stress in Mycobacterium tuberculosis , organic solvent stress in Escherichia coli , and acid stress in E. coli and Salmonella .
