The composition and metabolism of phosphatidylcholines and phosphatidylethanomines of germinating soya bean Glycine max have been examined. Both phospholipids have a very similar fatty acid composition and distribution, with saturated acids located at the 1- position. The fatty acid composition and relative amounts of individual molecular species of the two phospholipids were also very similar. The relative amounts of the species were in the order tetraenoic pentaenoic trienoic = dienoic = monoenoic. In contrast, the labelling of the molecular species from choline Me[14C] or ethanolamine [2-14C] showed considerable differences. Phosphatidylethanolamine-[14C] showed 58% label in trienoic, 17% in tetraenoic, 18% in pentaneoic and 5% in dienoic species 48 hr after germination. The equivalent figures for phosphatidylcholine-[14C] were 37, 34, 13 and 15% respectively. An increase in labelling of the more unsaturated species was seen with time. 相似文献

The molecular species composition of membrane phospholipids influences the activities of integral proteins and cell signalling pathways. We determined the effect of increasing gestational age on fetal guinea pig liver phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), and plasma PC molecular species composition. The livers were collected from fetuses (n = 5/time point) at 5 day intervals between 40 and 65 days of gestation, and at term (68 days). Hepatic PC and PE molecular species composition was determined by electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry. An increasing gestational age was accompanied by selective changes in individual molecular species. The proportion of the sn-1 18:0 species increased relative to the sn-1 16:0 species in liver PC, but not PE, with an increasing gestational age. 1-O-alkyl-2-acyl PC species concentrations decreased significantly between 40 and 45 days of gestation (40%), and 65 and 68 days (54%). Total 1-O-alkenyl-2-acyl PE species concentration increased between days 60 and 65, due to a rise in 1-O-16:0 alkyl/20:4 content, and then decreased until term. Between day 40 and term, PC and PE sn-2 18:2n-6 species concentrations increased 3-fold. PC16:0/18:2 increased gradually throughout gestation, while PC18:0/18:2 content only increased after day 65. The overall increase in PE18:2n-6 content was due to PE18:0/18:2 alone. The composition of plasma PC essentially reflected hepatic PC. Overall, these data suggest differential regulation of hepatic PC and PE molecular species composition during development which is essentially independent of the maternal fatty acid supply. 相似文献

Four subfractions of phosphatidycholine and phosphyatidylethanolamine according to the degree of unsaturation of their fatty acids have been separated from lipid extracts of microsomes, and inner and outer mitochondrial membranes. The predominant species found in the three membranes contained one saturated and one unsaturated fatty acid. In microsomes completely saturated species of both phosphatidylcholine and phosphatideylethanolamine were practically nonexistent. In outer mitochondrial membranes species with two unsaturated fatty acids were absent. In the inner mitochondrial membranes, however, disaturated species and those with two unsaturated fatty acids were found. 相似文献

Phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) of the myelin membrane exhibit heterogeneity with respect to metabolic turnover rate (Miller, S. L., Benjamins, J. A., and Morell, P. (1977) J. Biol. Chem. 252, 4025-4037). To test the hypothesis that this is due to differential turnover of individual molecular species (which differ in acyl chain composition), we have examined the relative turnover of individual molecular species of myelin PC and PE. Phospholipids were labeled by injection of [2-3H]glycerol into the brains of young rats. Myelin was isolated at 1, 15, and 30 days post-injection, lipids were extracted, and phospholipid classes were separated by thin-layer chromatography. The PC and PE fractions were hydrolyzed with phospholipase C, and the resulting diacylglycerols were dinitrobenzoylated and fractionated by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography. The distribution of radioactivity among individual molecular species was determined. The labeled molecular species of myelin PC were 16:0-16:0, 16:0-18:0, 16:0-18:1, and 18:0-18:1, with most of the label present in 16:0-18:1 and 18:0-18:1. Changes in distribution of label with time after injection indicated that 16:0-18:1 turned over more rapidly than 18:0-18:1. The labeled molecular species of myelin PE were 18:0-20:4, 18:1-18:1, 16:0-18:1, 18:0-18:2, and 18:0-18:1. As with myelin PC, 16:0-18:1 (and 18:1-18:1) turned over more rapidly than 18:0-18:1. The relative turnover of individual molecular species of PC in the microsomal fraction from forebrain was also examined. The molecular species profile was different from myelin PC, but again, 16:0-18:1 turned over more rapidly than the other molecular species. Thus, within the same membrane, individual molecular species of a phospholipid class are metabolized at different rates. Comparison of our results with previous studies of turnover of molecular classes of phospholipids indicates that in addition to polar head group composition (Miller et al., 1977), fatty acid composition is very important in determining the metabolic fate of a phospholipid. 相似文献

Using high performance liquid chromatography and gas-liquid chromatography, we have characterized the phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine molecular species composition of trophozoite and schizont forms of Plasmodium knowlesi parasitized erythrocytes. Similarly, we determined these parameters in the erythrocyte membranes of trophozoite parasitized cells, unparasitized erythrocytes from infected monkeys before and after a chloroquine treatment and erythrocytes from monkeys that had never been infected. Plasma phosphatidylcholine molecular species composition was also studied. P. knowlesi parasitized erythrocytes presented higher amounts of 16:0/18:2-phosphatidylcholine than the various control cells, which appeared to be compensated for by a decrease in 18:0/20:4-, 16:0/20:3-, 16:0/18:1-, 18:0/18:2-, 18:0/20:3-, 16:0/16:0- and 16:0/18:0-phosphatidylcholines. In the case of phosphatidylethanolamine, the alterations were quantitatively of greater importance and consisted of an increase in, again, 16:0/18:2-phosphatidylethanolamine and a decrease in several species containing 20:4, namely 16:0/20:4-, 18:0/20:4- and 18:1/20:4-phosphatidylethanolamine; also the levels of alkoxy-phosphatidylethanolamines were markedly decreased. P. knowlesi development within monkey erythrocytes therefore appears to be associated with changes in phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine molecular species in the whole parasitized cell. These alterations are also exhibited by the host cell membrane, which provides the first experimental evidence that the parasite is able to manipulate the erythrocyte membrane lipid species composition. The consequences of these alterations on membrane physiology are discussed, as well as the implications that these data may have on the trafficking of phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine in the erythrocytes of P. knowlesi infected monkeys. 相似文献

Egg yolk phospholipids, on a 10 g scale, were resolved by high-performance liquid chromatography on an 8-m silica column with elution by a stepwise chloroformmethanol gradient into homogenous phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylethanolamine, and lysophosphatidylethanolamine fractions. Within these fractions, partial resolution on the basis of fatty acyl side chain composition was achieved. 相似文献

Summary Molecular species profiles were determined for both phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) of mitochondrial and microsomal membrane fractions from liver tissue of thermally-acclimated rainbow trout,Salmo gairdneri. The predominant molecular species of PC were 16:0/22:6, 16:0/18:1, 16:0/20:3 and 16:0/22:5, whereas predominant molecular species of PE were 18:1/20:4, 14:0/16:0, 18:0/22:6 and 18:1/22:6. PE possessed short chain saturates (primarily 14:0/16:0) and monoenes (primarily 14:0/16:1) not present in PC and larger proportions of polyunsaturated (18:0/22:6, 18:0/22:5 and 18:1/22:6. and diunsaturated molecular species than PC. Differences between membrane fractions were most evident in warm (20°C)-acclimated trout. Mitochondria contained higher proportions of long-chain, polyunsaturated molecular species of PE, but less of the corresponding species of PC than other membrane fractions. Rankings based on unsaturation index were accordingly: mitochondria heavy microsomes>light microsomes for PE, but heavy microsomes>light microsomes>-mitochondria for PC. Mitochondria were notable for high proportions of diunsaturated molecular species of both phosphatides. Growth at cold temperatures (5°C) was generally associated with a replacement of shorter chain mono- and dienoic molecular species (16:0/18:1, 16:1/18:1, 14:0/16:2 and 18:1/18:1 in the case of PC and 14:0/16:1, 14:0/16:2 and 16:1/18:1 for PE), and occasionally saturates, with long-chain, polyunsaturated molecular species (for PC, C36–38: 16:0/22:6, 16:1/22:6, 16:0/20:3 and 16:0/20:5; for PE, C38–40: 18:1/20:4, 16:1/22:6, 18:0/20:5, 18:2/20:4, 18:0/22:5 and 18:0/22:6). However, compositions of mitochondrial PE and PC from heavy microsomes were not significantly influenced by acclimation temperature. The role of phospholipase A2, in addition to other metabolic processes, in mediating these changes is discussed.Abbreviations

The effect of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) molecular species on the reconstitution of partially purified glycerophosphate acyltransferase of Escherichia coli was investigated. The acyltransferase activity was abolished by 1,2-di-unsaturated (U-U) PE, but not by 1-saturated-2-unsaturated (S-U) PE or 1-saturated-2-cyclopropanoyl PE. Since both the U-U and S-U PE used in the present work are in a fluid state at temperatures above about 30 degrees C, the differential effect cannot be accounted for in terms of the membrane fluidity. Therefore, the inactivation of the reconstituted enzyme was attributed to the large amount of the 1,2-di-cis-vaccenoyl species of PE. 相似文献

Differential methylation patterns in molecular species of phosphatidylethanolamine derivatives in rat liver membranes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The appearance of individual molecular species of phospholipids in the complete sequence of the transmethylation of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) was examined in rat liver microsomes incubated with S-adenosyl-L-[methyl-14C]methionine. Reverse-phase HPLC analysis of phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidyl-N,N-dimethylethanolamine (dimethyl-PE), or phosphatidyl-N-monomethylethanolamine (monomethyl-PE) showed that radioactivity was present in the same six principal molecules; a first group is constituted by 16:0/22:6, 16:0/20:4 and 16:0/18:2 and a second one by the homologous molecules with 18:0 instead of 16:0 at the sn-1 position of glycerol. In PC, 16:0/22:6 (23% of total radioactivity) was preponderant, and 18:0/20:4 was the lowest. The ratios cpm in PC/nmol in PE were in the order: 16:0/22:6 greater than 16:0/18:2 greater than 16:0/20:4 followed by the corresponding 18:0 molecules. On the other hand, in intermediate phospholipids, incorporation of methyl groups was most marked in 18:0/20:4 (24-27% of total). 16:0/22:6 and 16:0/18:2 were low in comparison to their relative values in PC. The ratio (18:0/20:4)/(16:0/22:6) was 4.5-5.6-times higher in monomethyl-PE and dimethyl-PE than in PC. These differences were found consistently, regardless of incubation time of microsomes (2.5-60 min) and of S-adenosyl-L-methionine (AdoMet) concentration (3 or 100 microM). In liver membranes, it would therefore seem that there is a different selectivity in methyl group transfer, depending upon whether the first two steps or the third step of the reaction are considered. Side reactions, such as deacylation/reacylation, are unlikely to account for this difference, which could rather be related to the enzyme itself. 相似文献

Sodium and glucose effluxes were measured in liposomes formed from a series of saturated phosphatidylcholines (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamines (PE). Vesicles composed of a saturated PC display a local permeability maximum in the region of the lipid transition temperature. The height of this maximum is predominantly a function of the thickness of the hydrocarbon chain region. Liposomes formed from a saturated PE do not display such a permeability maximum and in these vesicles the permeability process appears to be controlled by the head group region. It is postulated that the control exerted by the ethanolamine group is due to the reorganization of water structure it induces at the bilayer surface. 相似文献

The in vivo rates of the reactions of the cytidine pathways of liver phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine synthesis were measured in rats after 1 day of feeding on a semisynthetic diet containing 1% orotic acid. The calculations were made from the specific and total radioactivity versus time curves of the precursors and products following intraportal injection of [1,2-14C]choline, [2-14C]ethanolamine, and [2-3H]glycerol. The liver CTP level was increased twofold and the rates of CDP-choline and phosphatidylcholine synthesis were stimulated 4.5-fold in the rats fed orotic acid. The rate of CDP-ethanolamine synthesis was increased but could not be accurately quantified because of its extreme rapidity. No change occurred in the rate of the ethanolaminephosphotransferase reaction and the overall rate of phosphatidylethanolamine synthesis was unchanged by orotic acid feeding. The catalytic activities of the enzymes of the cytidine pathways of phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine synthesis were not affected by feeding orotic acid for 1 day. Similar findings were obtained 3 h following intragastric administration of 100 mg of orotic acid. The results suggest the possibility that changes in the levels of liver CTP may play a role in regulation of the cytidine pathway of liver phosphatidylcholine synthesis but not of phosphatidylethanolamine synthesis, because the latter pathway appears to be tightly controlled at the ethanolaminephosphotransferase step. 相似文献

The specificity of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) N-methyltransferase for molecular species of PE has been investigated. Phosphatidylcholine (PC), synthesized by incubation of [methyl-3H]S-adenosyl-L-methionine with microsomes or pure enzyme (Ridgway, N. D., and Vance, D. E. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 17231-17239) plus microsomal PE, had a distribution of methyl label in molecular species similar to the mole percent distribution of molecular species in the precursor PE. A similar lack of specificity was observed with PE that was synthesized from egg PC by transphosphatidylation with phospholipase D. Phosphatidyl-N-monomethylethanolamine (PMME) and phosphatidyl-N,N-dimethylethanolamine (PDME), both with the acyl composition of egg PC, were methylated by the pure enzyme and showed a distribution of labeled molecular species in PDME and PC, respectively, similar to the mole percent distribution of egg PC. Results with synthetic PEs and pure methyltransferase showed higher rates of methylation with more unsaturated species. Long chain saturated PEs (e.g. dipalmitoyl-PE) were not methylated by the enzyme. Maximal methylation rates were obtained with two or more double bonds in the substrate PE. Rates of methylation of the saturated and monoenoic PEs could be enhanced when 40 mol % polyunsaturated-rich microsomal PC was included in the mixed micelles. PC isolated from primary cultures of rat hepatocytes pulsed with [methyl-3H]methionine was analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography. Initially, the labeling pattern of PC molecular species varied slightly from that of total hepatocyte PE and hepatocyte microsomal PE. 1-Palmitoyl-2-docosahexaenoyl-PC had the highest specific activity at the end of the pulse and was preferentially labeled relative to the mole percent distribution of hepatocyte PE molecular species. During the 24-h chase period both the percent distribution of label and specific activity of this species of PC declined. In the same time period, there was a corresponding increase in specific activity and percent distribution of label in 1-palmitoyl and 1-stearoyl species with linoleate and arachidonate in the sn-2 position. 相似文献

We have examined the infrared absorption spectra from 4000 to 250 cm?1 of multilayers of phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidylcholine/phosphatidylethanolamine (1:1 m/m) as a function of hydration, pH, and fatty acid composition. Characteristic splittings of the CH2 bending and rocking modes and the position of the phosphoryl absorption at ca. 1240 cm?1 reveal differences in acyl chain packing and head group conformation in the various films. Spectra demonstrate the importance of NH → O hydrogen bonding of the ethanolamine head group and the prerequisite head group conformation (tangent to the multilayer plane) in establishing these structural differences. The general appearance of the P-O-C stretching region (~1050 cm?1) in the pure and mixed films further supports these conclusions and shows that the spectra clearly distinguish among the different head group orientations. Self-association of phosphatidylethanolamine is sometimes sufficient to prevent formation of mixed phases with phosphatidylcholine at neutral pH. The amount of fine structure, particularly in the low-frequency (800?200 cm?1) region, in spectra of films of anhydrous, saturated-chain phospholipids decreases considerably when the films are monohydrated, when mixed phases exist, or when there are unsaturations in the acyl chains. These changes likely result from decreased crystal field effects in the spectra as the phosphatide packing density is decreased by any of the above procedures. Furthermore, the absence of other changes upon complete hydration of phosphatidylcholine films suggests that only the initial water is tightly bound to the lipid. 相似文献

The topography of phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine and triacylglycerol biosynthetic enzymes within the transverse plane of rat liver microsomes was investigated using two impermeant inhibitors, mercury-dextran and dextran-maleimide. Between 70 and 98% of the activities of fatty acid : CoA ligase (EC 6.2.1.3), sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.15), phosphatidic acid phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.4), diacylglycerol acyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.20), diacylglycerol cholinephosphotransferase (EC 2.7.8.2) and diacylglycerol ethanolaminephosphotransferase (EC 2.7.8.1) were inactivated by mercury-dextran. Dextran-maleimide caused 52% inactivation of the sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase. Inactivation of each of these activities except fatty acid : CoA ligase occurred in microsomal vesicles which remained intact as evidenced by the maintenance of highly latent mannose-6-phosphatase activity (EC 3.1.3.9). These glycerolipid biosynthetic activities were not latent, indicating that substrates have free access to the active sites. Moreover, ATP, CDP-choline and CMP appeared unable to penetrate the microsome membrane. These data indicate that the active sites of thease enzymes are located on the external surface of microsomal vesicles. It is concluded that the biosynthesis of phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine and triacylglycerol occurs asymmetrically on the cytoplasmic surface of the endoplasmic reticulum. 相似文献

Choline and ethanolamine are substrates for de novo synthesis of phosphatidylcholine (PtdC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PtdE) through the CDP-choline and CDP-ethanolamine pathways. In liver, PtdE can also be converted to PtdC by PtdE N-methyltransferase (PEMT). We investigated these kinetics in rat liver during a 60 min infusion with 13C-labeled choline and ethanolamine. NMR analyses of liver extracts provided concentrations and 13C enrichments of phosphocholine (Pcho), phosphoethanolamine (Peth), PtdC, and PtdE. Kinetic models showed that the de novo and PEMT pathways are ‘channeled’ processes. The intermediary metabolites directly derived from exogenous choline and ethanolamine do not completely mix with the intracellular pools, but are preferentially used for phospholipid synthesis. Of the newly synthesized PtdC, about 70% was derived de novo and 30% was by PEMT. PtdC and PtdE de novo syntheses displayed different kinetics. A simple model assuming constant fluxes yielded a modest fit to the data; allowing upregulated fluxes significantly improved the fit. The ethanolamine-to-Peth flux exceeded choline-to-Pcho, and the rate of PtdE synthesis (1.04 μmol/h/g liver) was 2–3 times greater than that of PtdC de novo synthesis. The metabolic pathway information provided by these studies makes the NMR method superior to earlier radioisotope studies. 相似文献

Effect of choline deficiency on the enzymes that synthesize phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine in rat liver 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Activities have been determined in subcellular fractions of livers from choline-deficient and normals rats for the enzymes that convert choline and ethanolamine to phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine respectively, that methylate phosphatidylethanolamine to yield phosphatidylcholine, and that oxidize choline to betaine. The activities of ethanolamine kinase, phosphoethanolamine cytidylyltransferase, and CDP-ethanolamine: 1,2-diacylglycerol phosphoethanolaminetransferase are not changed in the livers from choline-deficient rats for at least 18 days. Similarly, the activities of choline kinase and CDP-choline: 1,2-diacylglycerol phosphocholine transferase were unaffected by choline depletion. A decrease of 30-41% was observed, however, in the mitochondrial oxidation of choline to betaine. Also, the activity of the phosphocholine cytidylyltransferase was reduced in the choline-deficient livers to 60% olf the control values. The only observed increase in enzyme activity was a 62% elevation of the phosphatidylethanolamine-S-adenosylmethionine methyltransferase activity after 2 days of choline deficiency. This increased activity was maintained for at least 18 days of choline deprivation. The results suggest a lack of adaptive change in the levels of these phospholipid biosynthetic enzymes as a result of choline deficiency. 相似文献
