Primary leaves of Phaseolus vulgaris show concomitant changes in phospholipid, galactolipid, chlorophyll and fresh weight during leaf development from 3 to 32 days after planting. Phosphatidyl choline, phosphatidyl ethanolamine, and phosphatidyl inositol show only small changes on a mole per cent lipid phosphate basis during leaf development. The chloroplast lipids, phosphatidyl glycerol, monogalactosyl diglyceride (MGDG) and digalactosyl diglyceride (DGDG) all show marked increases and decreases which are coincident with chloroplast development. The decline in the leaf content of chloroplast polar lipids and chlorophyll become evident upon reaching maximal leaf size. The molar ratio of galactolipids (MGDG/DGDG), reaches a maximum value of 2.3 in expanding leaves, but steadily declines during senescence to a minimum value of 1.5 at abscission. The declining ratio is caused by a preferential loss of MGDG in the senescing leaves.  相似文献

The incorporation and turnover of [3H] glycerol into skeletal muscle cell cultures derived from embryonic chickens was studied. Both rates of incorporation and turnover of specific lipids were dependent on culture age and lipid species. The pattern of glycerol incorporation showed that prefusion myoblasts primarily synthesized both phosphatidylcholine and triglycerides whereas postfusion myotubes primarily synthesized phosphatidyl choline. This pattern could be modified in postfusion but not prefusion cells by briefly incubating the cells with unilammelar phosphatidyl choline vesicles. Analysis of major lipid species revealed that muscle triglycerides and phospholipids turned over at a higher rate in prefusion cultures compared to the postfusion state. These findings are discussed in light of the marked shift in lipid metabolism which occurs during myogenesis.  相似文献

The lipid and pigment pattern of the chaetophoralean green alga Fritschiella tuberosa was studied during different growth periods. Four phases in axenic batch culture are observed. The first phase commences at the end of logarithmic growth and results in a decrease of phosphatidyl inositol and hexadecatetraenoic acid.The second phase coincides with the end of linear growth and is characterized by a decrease in glycolipids, phospholipids and α-linolenic acid, and an increase of linoleic and oleic acid. The third phase starts with the beginning of the stationary phase. During this time glycolipids, phospholipids, and α-linolenic acid decrease and oleic acid, linoleic acid and triacylglycerol increase. The fourth phase begins about one week after the onset of the stationary growth phase. A marked accumulation of triacylglycerol took place, secondary carotenoids were detectable and the long filamentous cells of Fritschiella changed into slightly rotund short cells.  相似文献

Covalently bound 14C from 14CCl4 is preferentially localized in the lipids of hepatic microsomes of rats within 15 min. Label was recovered in all classes of lipids isolated from the microsomal lipid extract by diethylaminoethyl column chromatography. Among phospholipids, specific activity was the highest in the fraction containing phosphatidyl serine and lowest in phosphatidyl choline. Cholesterol esters had more than ten times the specific activity of cholesterol.  相似文献

Microscopic vesicles enclosed by membranes formed entirely of oleic or linoleic acids (ufasomes) were studied by the freeze-etching and birefringence techniques. The results suggest the presence of one or more membranes around the particles, in which the fatty acid chains lie perpendicular to the surface. Comparison with results obtained with phospholipid liposomes shows that both types of particles are basically similar, although ufasomes have a less regular structure.  相似文献

Batch cultures (8–32 l.) of Chlorella vulgaris and Scenedesmus obliquus and of Anacystis nidulans and Microcystis aeruginosa were grown in media containing 0.001 % KNO3 and at several stages in growth sampled for biomass, total protein, chlorophylls, lipids and fatty acids. With increasing time and decreasing nitrogen concentrations, the biomass of all of the algae increased, whereas the total protein and chlorophyll content dropped. Green and blue-green algae, however, behaved differently in their lipid metabolism. In the green algae the total lipid and fatty acid content as well as the composition of these compounds changed considerably during one growth phase and was dependent on the nitrogen concentration in the media at any given day of growth. More specifically, during the initial stages of growth the green algae produced larger amounts of polar lipids and polyunsaturated C16 and C18 fatty acids. Towards the end of growth, however, these patterns changed in that the main lipids of the green algae were neutral with mainly saturated fatty acids (mostly 18:1 and 16:0). Such changes did not occur in the blue-green algae. These differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic algae can possibly be explained by the ‘endosymbiont theory’.  相似文献

Vesicles formed with phosphatidyl ethanolamine, phosphatidyl choline, cardiolipin, coupling factors and hydrophobic proteins from bovine heart mitochondria catalyzed a rapid32Pi-ATP exchange. When phosphatidyl choline was deleted during the assembly of the vesicles, little32Pi-ATP exchange was observed. Exchange activity was induced by incubating such deficient vesicles with phosphatidyl choline liposomes in the presence of a phosphatidyl choline transfer protein isolated from bovine heart. Transfer of [32P] phosphatidyl choline was demonstrated by isolation of the activated vesicles by sucrose density centrifugation.  相似文献

Effects of the lethal fraction (MD-9) from the venom of the Mojave rattlesnake, Crotalus scutulatus, on sarcoplasmic reticulum were investigated. The calcium sequestering activity of the vesicles was reduced by the lethal fraction and subsequent release of calcium was enhanced. These effects were observed to be dependent upon MD-9 concentration and the length of preincubation time with the vesicles. An enhanced ATPase activity that was affected by concentration and MD-9 preincubation time was also observed. Both calcium uptake and ATPase activity effects may be due to a phospholipase activity associated with the fraction.  相似文献

Phosphatidyl glycerol is present in lamellar bodies and in the material obtained by alveolar wash representing 12.3 and 11.5%, respectively, of the total phospholipid phosphorus. Lung microsomes catalyze the formation of phosphatidyl glycerol from the known precursors, L-glycerol 3-phosphate and CDP-diglyceride. The rate of [14C]L-glycerol 3-phosphate incorporation into phosphatidyl glycerol was 30% higher in microsomes as compared to mitochondria. The addition of mercuric chloride inhibited the synthesis of phosphatidyl glycerol, and stimulated the incorporation into another as yet incompletely identified lipid. After pulse labeling of microsomal phosphatidyl glycerol in vitro, further incubation of microsomes with lamellar bodies or alveolar wash resulted in nearly quantitative appearance of label in surfactant.  相似文献

Two green algae (Chlorella vulgaris and Scenedesmus obliquus) and four blue-green algae (Anacystis nidulans, Microcystis aeruginosa, Oscillatoria rubescens and Spirulina platensis) were grown in 81 batch cultures at different nitrogen levels. In all the algae increasing N levels led to an increase in the biomass (from 8 to 450 mg/l), in protein content (from 8 to 54 %) and in chlorophyll. At low N levels, the green algae contained a high percentage of total lipids (45 % of the biomass). More than 70 % of these were neutral lipids such as triacylglycerols (containing mainly 16:0 and 18:1 fatty acids) and trace amounts of hydrocarbons. At high N levels, the percentage of total lipids dropped to about 20 % of the dry weight. In the latter case the predominant lipids were polar lipids containing polyunsaturated C16 and C18 fatty acids. The blue-green algae, however, did not show any significant changes in their fatty acid and lipid compositions, when the nitrogen concentrations in the nutrient medium were varied. Thus the green but not the blue-green algae can be manipulated in mass cultures to yield a biomass with desired fatty acid and lipid compositions. The data may indicate a hitherto unrecognized distinction between prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms.  相似文献

Stimulation of phospholipid methylation by glucose in pancreatic islets   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
A two fold stimulation in the incorporation of [3H-methyl] groups from [3H-methyl] methionine into phospholipids was seen in intact pancreatic islets within six minutes of exposure to a glucose concentration that stimulates insulin release. Nonstimulatory sugars, L-glucose and D-galactose, as well as dibutyryl cAMP, did not affect phospholipid methylation in islet cells. A calcium channel blocker, verapamil, inhibited methylation. These studies suggest that the signal for glucose-induced insulin release could involve phospholipid methylation.  相似文献

The phospholipid fatty acid composition of Porphyridium purpureum grown on a solid medium was studied in the presence of Triton X-100 (TX) and sodium desoxycholate (SDC). The most common fatty acids in PC and PE were palmitic (16:0), stearic (18:0), linoleic (18:2ω6), arachidonic (20:4ω6) and eicosapentaenoic (20:5ω3) acids, 20:4ω6 being very abundant. In PG the most common acids were 16:0, trans-hexaenoic acid (tr16:1ω3), oleic acid (18:1) and 20:4ω6. Both detergents caused an increase in the saturation of PC and, to a lesser extent, of PE. The relative amounts of short chain fatty acids increased. Both detergents increased the amounts of 16:0 and, correspondingly, decreased the amounts of 20:4ω6. In PG the amounts of both 16:0 and tr 16:1ω3 increased and the amounts of 18:0, 18:2ω6 and 20:4ω6 decreased in the presence of detergents. The changes were always greatest at the concentrations of 5–10 ppm TX or SDC. At 20 ppm the fatty acid compositions, especially with SDC, were very similar to the controls, which suggests a change in the detergent effect between 10–20 ppm. The normal PC/PE ratio was 5.6 and the (PC+ PE)/PG ratio 39.0. Both detergents caused a marked decrease in these ratios. Because the detergent effects are not linear, it seems that even very low detergent concentrations have an important influence on algae in polluted waters.  相似文献

Egg yolk phosphatidyl choline liposomes containing variable amounts of phosphatidyl ethanolamine, phosphatidyl inositol or phosphatidyl serine demonstrated important variations in the fluorescence of 3.3' dipropylthiodicarbocyanine. When the membrane contained no cholesterol, fluorescence was not correlated with membrane fluidity as measured by diphenyl hexatriene polarization. Increasing cholesterol concentration in valinomycin containing liposome membranes decreased the potassium induced apparent membrane potential and prevented sorption of dye to the membrane. Discontinuity in the apparent potential occurred at 30 mol% cholesterol but could not be correlated with changes in microviscosity. These results indicate that great care should be taken when correlating rapid variations of fluorescence to changes in membrane potential. We propose that changes in phospholipid metabolism could well explain fluorescent changes when monitoring the fluorescence of cyanine dye molecules sorbed to biological membranes.  相似文献

Galactolipase, phospholipase and triacylglycerol lipase activities were measured from the midgut of six species of lepidopteran larvae, two folivores, Epiphyas postvittana (Tortricidae) and Helicoverpa armigera (Noctuidae); two granivores, Plodia interpunctella (Pyralidae) and Ephestia kuehniella (Pyrallidae); a presumptive carnivore, Galleria mellonella (Pyralidae); and a keratinophage, Tineola bisselliella (Tineidae). Galactolipase has not been previously reported in insects. Galactolipase and phospholipase activities were high in the folivores and triacylglycerol lipase activity was low, matching the high galactolipid content of leaves. Conversely, galactolipase and phospholipase activities were low, but not absent, and triacylglycerol lipase activity high in the four other non-folivorous species, matching the high acylglycerol content of their diets. These data suggest the utility of reclassification, for evolutionary studies, of phytophagous lepidoptera into two feeding classes; folivore and granivore, the latter having similarity to the fungivore line of feeders in terms of its lipase activities and ability to retrieve essential polyunsaturated long chain fatty acids from their diets. All the digestive lipases have alkaline pH optima for activity, matching the pH of the lepidopteran midgut and their amino acid content show modifications likely to stabilize the proteins in that environment.  相似文献

A glycosphingolipid (galactosyl ceramide) has been synthesized which has a spin label covalently attached near the methyl end of the fatty acid chain. This is to our knowledge the first glycolipid spin label to be reported. It is being used to study glycosphingolipid behaviour in lipid bilayers — especially with a view to potential differences from phospholipids. Like phospholipids it assumes a random distribution in fluid lipid bilayers but tends to be excluded from regions rich in phosphatidyl serine in the face of a Ca2+-induced lateral phase separation.  相似文献

Photo-, mixo- and heterotrophically grown cultures of Chlamydomonas reinhardi (wild type ss and 2 streptomycin-resistant mutants sr3 and sr35) have been analyzed for lipids and fatty acids. Ether-soluble lipids, chlorophyll, monogalactosyl diglyceride, digalactosyl diglyceride, sulfolipid, phosphatidyl ethanolamine, phosphatidyl choline, phosphatidyl glycerol and the relative amounts of fatty acids in total and individual lipids have been determined. The lipid and fatty acid compositions are very similar in the 3 strains and are not affected by the mutations. Fatty acids belong exclusively to the C16 and C18 series, 16:0, 16:4, 18:1, 18:2, 18:3 (6,9,12) and 18:3 (9,12,15) comprising about 90% of the total. 18:3 (6,9,12) is concentrated in phosphatidyl ethanolamine. In streptomycin-bleached sr3 cells, ether-soluble lipids increase from 7 to 11% of dry weight on greening, mostly due to synthesis of monogalactosyl diglyceride and chlorophyll. Monogalactosyl diglyceride of bleached cells exhibits the same fatty acid pattern before and after greening.  相似文献

In this paper we performed focused analyses of phospholipids by using the data of precursor ion scanning and neutral loss scanning of their polar head groups and fatty acyl moieties for the specific search of categorical phospholipids. By using precursor ion scanning or neutral loss scanning of polar head groups in the positive ion mode, more sensitive identification were obtained than that in the negative ion mode. Precursor ion scanning of carbonic anions in the negative ion mode was also effective to identify molecular species of phospholipids having specified fatty acyl moieties. By using these analytical methods, the detection limits of individual metabolites are going up to 5-20-fold of former conventional methods. The important factor is that by focusing in some limited categories of molecules, detection limit is greatly enhanced, thus minor but important molecules can be detected. Moreover, combination of LC-MS/MS and focused scanning for head group was revealed to be useful to identify very minor molecular species in the focused class of phospholipids.  相似文献
