The cytoskeletal component vinculin has been proposed to act as an actin-plasma membrane linker. In order to demonstrate a possible direct interaction of vinculin with bilayers, photolabeling with a phospholipid generating a highly reactive carbene was used. This phosphatidylcholine analogue (1-palmitoyl-2-[10-[4-[(trifluoromethyl)diazirinyl]phenyl]-[3H] 9-oxaundecanoyl]-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine), with the photoactivatable diazirine group on its apolar portion, has been shown to label selectively membrane-embedded domains of membrane proteins. Vinculin is significantly labeled upon incubation and photolysis with liposomes containing trace amounts of this photoactivatable phospholipid, but only when the liposomes also contain acidic phospholipids. Labeling of vinculin is markedly increased (5-17-fold) by all acidic phospholipids tested so far (30%, w/w), compared to labeling in neutral phospholipids. Labeling is high at low ionic strength, but significant vinculin labeling can still be observed at physiological salt concentrations and acidic phospholipid content of the membrane. Our results provide evidence that vinculin inserts into the hydrophobic part of the bilayer by interacting with acidic phospholipids. A similar interaction may be of importance in vivo.  相似文献

The liver-type fatty acid binding protein (L-FABP), a member of a family of mostly cytosolic 14-15 kDa proteins known to bind fatty acids in vitro and in vivo, is discussed to play a role in fatty acid uptake. Cells of the hepatoma HepG2 cell line endogenously express this protein to approximately 0.2% of cytosolic proteins and served as a model to study the effect of L-FABP on fatty acid uptake, by manipulating L-FABP expression in two approaches. First, L-FABP content was more than doubled upon treating the cells with the potent peroxisome proliferators bezafibrate and Wy14,643 and incubation of these cells with [1-14C]oleic acid led to an increase in fatty acid uptake rate from 0.55 to 0.74 and 0.98 nmol/min per mg protein, respectively. In the second approach L-FABP expression was reduced by stable transfection with antisense L-FABP mRNA yielding seven clones with L-FABP contents ranging from 0.03% to 0.14% of cytosolic proteins. This reduction to one sixth of normal L-FABP content reduced the rate of [1-14C]oleic acid uptake from 0.55 to 0. 19 nmol/min per mg protein, i.e., by 66%. The analysis of peroxisome proliferator-treated cells and L-FABP mRNA antisense clones revealed a direct correlation between L-FABP content and fatty acid uptake.  相似文献

[14C] palmitic acid or [3H] retinyl esters incorporated in microsomal membranes were removed by a cytosolic fraction enriched in fatty acid binding protein. When mouse liver cytosol was fractionated by 70% ammonium sulphate, a precipitate and a soluble fraction were obtained. The soluble fraction containing the fatty acid binding protein was able to remove from microsomal membranes, [14C] palmitic acid or [3H] retinyl esters, whereas the precipitate fraction had no removal capacity. Retinoid analysis indicated that 70% ammonium sulphate soluble fraction was enriched in endogenous retinyl esters with regard to cytosol or 70% ammonium sulphate precipitate fraction.  相似文献

Photoaffinity labeling and fatty acid permeation in 3T3-L1 adipocytes   总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7  
Long chain fatty acid uptake was investigated in 3T3-L1 cells. Differentiation of these cells from fibroblasts to adipocytes was accompanied by an 8.5-fold increase in the rate of oleate uptake. This was saturable in adipocytes with apparent Kt and Vmax values of 78 nM and 16 nmol/min/mg cell protein, respectively. A number of proteins in various subcellular fractions of differentiated cells were labeled with the photoreactive fatty acid 11-m-diazirinophenoxy[11-3H]undecanoate. A 15-kDa cytoplasmic protein was induced upon differentiation to adipocytes. This protein was labeled with the photoreactive fatty acid in cytoplasm isolated from differentiated adipocytes, but not in cytoplasm from undifferentiated, fibroblastic cells. Furthermore, a high affinity fatty acid binding protein of 22 kDa was identified in plasma membranes of undifferentiated cells, and its level of labeling increased 2-fold upon differentiation. These results indicate the usefulness of the photoreactive fatty acid in identifying cellular fatty acid binding proteins, and its potential to elucidate the spatial and temporal distribution of fatty acids in intact cells.  相似文献

We investigated the effect of exogenous fatty acids on phosphatidylcholine (PC) and disaturated phosphatidylcholine (DSPC) synthesis by rat granular pneumocytes in primary culture. Synthesis of PC and DSPC from [3H-methyl]choline, as evaluated by increasing specific activity (pmol choline incorporated/microgram phosphorus), was linear for 3 h. Exogenous palmitic, oleic, linoleic, or linolenic acid (100 microM each) increased the synthesis of PC by approx. 50% during incubation for 3 h. In contrast, synthesis of DSPC was increased only by palmitic acid. The increase in DSPC synthesis was approx. 150% after 3 h. Conversion of choline phosphate to PC was increased in the presence of palmitic or oleic acid as indicated by pulse-chase studies with [3H-methyl]choline in the intact cells. Cells incubated for 3 h with either oleic or palmitic acid showed increased choline-phosphate cytidyltransferase activity in the cells and the microsomal fraction. In addition, oleic acid increased the activity of this enzyme in the cytosolic fraction. The distribution of this enzyme in cytosolic and microsomal fraction was 24 and 76% in the cells incubated with palmitic acid and 32 and 68% in control cells. These results suggest that exogenous fatty acids stimulate the de novo pathway of PC synthesis in granular pneumocytes by increasing the microsomal choline-phosphate cytidyltransferase activity.  相似文献

The possibility that estrogen receptors may exist in uterine plasma membranes was investigated by covalent labeling of estrogen receptors in mouse uterine cells with [3H]tamoxifen aziridine (TA). Isolated epithelial and stromal cells of immature mice were incubated with [3H]TA in the presence or absence of unlabeled tamoxifen, homogenized and separated into nuclear, cytosolic and microsomal fractions by differential centrifugation. These fractions were subjected to SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and the proteins labeled covalently with TA were visualized by autoradiography. Proteins labeled specifically with [3H]TA were observed almost exclusively in the nuclear fraction of both epithelial and stromal cells. In contrast, very little labeled protein was detected in the cytosolic or microsomal fraction. Although these data do not preclude the possibility that estrogen binding sites are present in plasma membranes of uterine cells, this cellular fraction is definitely not labeled to a significant extent by [3H]TA. Thus, if membrane estrogen binding sites exist, their structural conformations may be different from that of nuclear estrogen receptors.  相似文献

Intact human erythrocytes incubated with L-[methyl-3H]methionine incorporated radioactivity into base-labile linkages with membrane and cytosolic proteins which are characteristic of protein methyl esters. Kinetic analysis of the methylation reactions in intact cells shows that individual erythrocytes contain approximately 38,000 and 115,000 protein methyl esters with biological half-lives of 150 min or less in the membrane and cytosolic protein fractions, respectively. Fractionation of the methylated cytosolic species by gel filtration chromatography at pH 6.5 followed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis at pH 2.4 reveals that many different cytosolic proteins serve as methyl acceptors and that the degree of modification varies widely for individual proteins. For example, hemoglobin is modified to the extent of 3 methyl groups/10(6) polypeptide chains, while carbonic anhydrase contains 1 methyl group/approximately 16,500 polypeptide chains at steady state. Aspartic acid beta-[3H]methyl ester (Asp beta-[3H]Me) can be isolated from carboxypeptidase Y digests of cytosol proteins. By synthesizing and separating diastereomeric L-Leu-L-Asp beta Me and L-Leu-D-Asp beta Me dipeptides, we show that all of the Asp beta-[3H]Me recovered from cytosolic proteins is in the D-stereoconfiguration. Based on these data and on previous observations that erythrocytes contain a single methyltransferase which also methylates red cell membrane proteins at D-aspartyl residues both in vivo (McFadden, P. N., and Clarke, S. (1982) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 79, 2460-2464) and in vitro (O'Connor, C. M., and Clarke, S. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 8485-8492), we propose that protein carboxyl methylation is part of a generalized mechanism for metabolizing damaged proteins. The infrequent and spontaneous occurrence of D-aspartyl residues in proteins adequately explains the broad substrate specificity and limited stoichiometries of protein carboxyl methylation reactions.  相似文献

Acylation of cellular proteins with endogenously synthesized fatty acids   总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14  
D Towler  L Glaser 《Biochemistry》1986,25(4):878-884
A number of cellular proteins contain covalently bound fatty acids. Previous studies have identified myristic acid and palmitic acid covalently linked to protein, the former usually attached to proteins by an amide linkage and the latter by ester or thio ester linkages. While in a few instances specific proteins have been isolated from cells and their fatty acid composition has been determined, the most frequent approach to the identification of protein-linked fatty acids is to biosynthetically label proteins with fatty acids added to intact cells. This procedure introduces possible bias in that only a selected fraction of proteins may be labeled, and it is not known whether the radioactive fatty acid linked to the protein is identical with that which is attached to the protein when the fatty acid is derived from endogenous sources. We have examined the distribution of protein-bound fatty acid following labeling with [3H]acetate, a general precursor of all fatty acids, using BC3H1 cells (a mouse muscle cell line) and A431 cells (a human epidermoid carcinoma). Myristate, palmitate, and stearate account for essentially all of the fatty acids linked to protein following labeling with [3H]acetate, but at least 30% of the protein-bound palmitate in these cells was present in amide linkage. In BC3H1 cells, exogenous palmitate becomes covalently bound to protein such that less than 10% of the fatty acid is present in amide linkage. These data are compatible with multiple protein acylating activities specific for acceptor protein fatty acid chain length and linkage.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

1. The range of fatty acids formed by preparations of ultrasonically ruptured avocado mesocarp plastids was dependent on the substrate. Whereas [1-14C]palmitate and [14C]oleate were the major products obtained from [-14C]acetate and [1-14C]acetyl-CoA, the principal product from [2-14C]malonyl-CoA was [14-C]stearate. 2. Ultracentrifugation of the ruptured plastids at 105000g gave a supernatant that formed mainly stearate from [2-14C]malonyl-CoA and to a lesser extent from [1-14C]acetate. The incorporation of [1-14C]acetate into stearate by this fraction was inhibited by avidin. 3. The 105000g precipitate of the disrupted plastids incorporated [1-14C]acetate into a mixture of fatty acids that contained largely [14C]plamitate and [14C]oleate. The formation of [14C]palmitate and [14C]oleate by disrupted plastids was unaffected by avidin. 4. The soluble fatty acid synthetase was precipitated from the 105000g supernatant in the 35-65%-saturated-(NH4)2SO4 fraction and showed an absolute requirement for acyl-carrier protein. 5. Both fractions synthesized fatty acids de novo.  相似文献

The potential role of liver fatty acid binding protein (L-FABP) in modulating cellular sterol distribution was examined in mouse L-cell fibroblasts transfected with cDNA encoding L-FABP. L-cells were chosen because they contain only a small amount of endogenous FABP which does not bind [3H]cholesterol, does not enhance intermembrane sterol transfer, and whose content is unaltered by the expression of L-FABP. Transfected L-cells expressed 0.34% of cytosolic protein as L-FABP. Transfection alone with low expression of L-FABP (0.008% of cytosolic protein) had no effect on any of the parameters tested. Three aspects of cellular sterol transfer were examined. First, cellular sterol uptake, monitored by [3H]cholesterol and the fluorescent sterol, delta-5,7,9(11),22-ergostatetraen-3 beta-ol, was increased 21.5 +/- 2.6% (p less than 0.001) in L-cells expressing L-FABP. This increase was not accounted for by increased sterol esterification in the cells expressing L-FABP. Inhibition of both cholesterol transfer and esterification with 3-(decyldimethylsilyl)-N-[2-(4-methylphenyl)-1-phenylethyl]propanamide from Sandoz abolished the L-FABP related enhancement of both [3H]cholesterol uptake and esterification. Second, plasma membrane transbilayer distribution of sterol, determined by fluorescence methods indicated that the majority of sterol was in the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane. In transfected cells expressing L-FABP, twice as much sterol (28 +/- 4%) was present in the exofacial leaflet of the plasma membrane as compared to that of control cells (15 +/- 2%). Third, expression of L-FABP enhanced sterol transfer from the plasma membrane to microsomes in intact cells. Treatment of [3H]cholesterol or [3H]oleate-loaded cells with sphingomyelinase resulted in increased formation of radiolabeled cholesterol ester, consistent with enhanced microsomal esterification of plasma membrane derived cholesterol. Concomitantly, plasma membrane [3H]cholesterol became less accessible to oxidation by cholesterol oxidase. Sphingomyelinase-stimulated cholesterol esterification was 21 +/- 3% greater in transfected cells. Concomitantly, accessibility of plasma membrane [3H]cholesterol to cholesterol oxidase was decreased 18 +/- 3% in cells expressing L-FABP. These differences are consistent with the ability of L-FABP to influence sterol transport and plasma membrane transbilayer sterol distribution in intact cells.  相似文献

Photoactivable reagents have been useful for studying the structural aspects of membrane hydrophobic core. We have reported earlier (Anjaneyulu, P.S.R., and Lala, A. K. (1982) FEBS Lett. 146, 165-167) the use of diazofluorene as a probe for fluorescent photochemical labeling of hydrophobic core in artificial membranes. To quantitate and enhance the monitoring ability of this probe, we have synthesized 2-[3H]diazofluorene of high specific activity. This reagent rapidly partitions into phosphatidylcholine vesicles and selectively labels the fatty acyl chains of phosphatidylcholine. The insertion yield (13%) is not affected by the presence of scavengers like reduced glutathione. 2-[3H]Diazofluorene also readily partitions into erythrocyte membranes and on photolysis labels the membrane. The overall insertion was 48% with 9.7% in protein fraction and the rest in lipids. The distribution of radioactivity in labeled protein fraction was restricted to integral membrane proteins with Band 3 being the major protein labeled. There is little or no labeling associated with extrinsic proteins like spectrin. Further analysis of labeled Band 3 by treatment with chymotrypsin indicated that the labeling was restricted to the membrane spanning CH-17 and CH-35 fragments. No labeling of the cytoplasmic fragment of Band 3 could be observed. 2-[3H]Diazofluorene should prove useful for studying integral membrane proteins and their membrane-spanning regions.  相似文献

The present study is one component of a comprehensive investigation of oxygen tolerance of tissues and organs in normal human subjects. The focus of this study was the acylation of membrane phospholipid in situ by erythrocytes. Activation of exogenous [9,10-3H]oleic acid to acyl thioester and transesterification of the acyl thioester into phospholipid by intact human erythrocytes incubated in vitro decreased 30% after exposure of 10 human subjects to hyperbaric hyperoxia (100% O2, 3 ATA, 3.5 h). Partial recovery of activity could be detected when additional cells were obtained from these subjects and assayed in vitro 24 h after cessation of exposure. No significant change in membrane phospholipid fatty acid composition was detected under these conditions. The reduced glutathione content of intact erythrocytes increased by 15% after hyperbaric hyperoxia and remained elevated 24 h after exposure. In isolated membranes prepared from the same cells activation of [9,10-3H]oleic acid to acyl thioester and its transesterification into phospholipid did not change after hyperoxia. Since the ability of intact cells to replace oxidized fatty acids in membrane phospholipids via deacylation and reacylation in situ may be necessary for the maintenance of membrane integrity during exposure to oxidative stress, the decrease in [9,10-3H]oleic acid incorporation by human erythrocytes detected in vitro after hyperbaric hyperoxia in vivo may reflect an early event in the pathogenesis of oxygen-induced cellular injury and may be a useful index for assessment of the tolerance of tissues to hyperoxia.  相似文献

The metabolism of linoleic acid by washed human platelets was investigated. [1.14C] linoleic acid was converted to [1.14C] hydroxy octadecadienoic acids (HODEs) at about the same rate with which [1.14C] 12-HETE was produced from [1.14C] arachidonic acid. The total radioactivity in HODEs was distributed among two isomers: 13-HODE (85%) and 9-HODE (15%) as defined by CG-MS. The production of HODEs by intact washed platelets was inhibited by indomethacin (IC50:5 x 10(-7) M) which suggest that hydroxy fatty acids were produced by PGH-synthase. By contrast, the production of HODEs by platelet cytosolic fractions was not modified under indomethacin treatment but completely abolished by NDGA (10(-3) M) and inhibited by the platelet lipoxygenase inhibitors 15-HETE (2.10(-5) M) and baicalein (10(-5) M). Platelets thus contain two different active systems which may convert linoleic acid to hydroxy fatty acids. Since these compounds remained essentially associated with the platelets, their presence may significantly participate in the mechanisms of platelet activation.  相似文献

1. Crude synaptosomal fractions (P2) from guinea-pig cerebral cortex were incubated in a Krebs-glucose medium containing labelled fatty acids and [3H]glucose. After the shortest incubation period (7.5 min) a high percentage (50-80%) of the total radioactive fatty acids was found in the P2 fractions. 2. After the incubation, the synaptosomal fractions were submitted to hypo-osmotic disruption and subsynaptosomal fractionation was carried out by using discontinuous-sucrose-gradient centrifugation. The specific radioactivities of phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylinositol were determined in fractions D (synaptic vesicles), E (microsomal preparation) and H (disrupted synaptosomes), as were the specific activities of a number of marker enzymes and the distribution of acetylcholine. 3. By using [14C]oleate, [14C]arachidonate, [3H]palmitate and [3H]glucose, the order to specific radioactivities in fraction D was found to be: phosphatidylinositol greater than phosphatidylcholine greater than phosphatidylserine greater than phosphatidylethanolamine. 4. The specific radioactivities of phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine were always higher in fraction D than in fraction E. As fraction E had higher specific activities of several membrane marker enzymes, the enhanced labelling found in fraction D was considered to be localized in the synaptic vesicles. In this fraction, phosphatidylinositol made particularly large contributions to the total phospholipid labelling derived from [14C]arachidonate and [3H]glucose. 5. The similar labelling ratios of fatty acid/glucose in the phospholipids of fractions D and E, and the high specific radioactivities in the total phospholipid of the soluble fraction O, suggested intrasynaptosomal phospholipid transport.  相似文献

Mitochondrial digitonin particles from mouse liver (and also from other tissues) incorporate [3H]myristic acid into a 52-kilodalton (kDa) protein in an energy-dependent manner. The 52-kDa N-myristylated protein is located inside the mitochondrial inner membrane since it is protected against proteolytic degradation in intact mitoplasts. Disruption of mitochondrial inner membrane by sonication results in severalfold higher labeling of the 52-kDa protein, further confirming that the enzyme system for protein fatty acylation as well as the 52-kDa target protein are compartmentalized inside the mitochondrial inner membrane matrix. The results of in vitro labeling of submitochondrial fractions suggest that both the 52-kDa target protein and the enzyme system for fatty acylation are in the matrix fraction, although the N-myristylated protein is found loosely associated with the inner membrane. Finally, immunoprecipitation of cytoplasmic free polysome translation products and in vitro transport of proteins into isolated mitochondria show that the 52-kDa protein is of cytoplasmic translation origin. These results demonstrate that the intramitochondrial N-myristylation of the 52-kDa protein is not translationally linked.  相似文献

Much of the lipid present in the ascites plasma in which Ehrlich cells grow is contained in very low density lipoproteins (VLDL). Chemical measurements indicated that triglycerides were taken up by the cells during in vitro incubation with ascites VLDL. When tracer amounts of radioactive triolein were incorporated into the ascites VLDL, the percentage uptakes of glyceryl tri[1-(14)C]oleate and triglycerides measured chemically were similar. The cells also took up [2-(3)H]glyceryl trioleate that was added to VLDL, but the percentage of available (3)H recovered in the cell lipids was 30-40% less than that of (1 4)C from glyceryl tri[1-(1 4)C]oleate. This difference was accounted for by water-soluble (3)H that accumulated in the incubation medium, suggesting that extensive hydrolysis accompanied the uptake of VLDL triglycerides. Radioactive fatty acids derived from the VLDL triglycerides were incorporated into cell phospholipids, glycerides, and free fatty acids, and they also were oxidized to CO(2). Triglyceride utilization increased as the VLDL concentration was raised. These results suggest that one function of the ascites plasma VLDL may be to supply fatty acid to the Ehrlich cells and that the availability of fatty acid to this tumor is determined in part by the ascites plasma VLDL concentration. Although Ehrlich cells incorporate almost no free glycerol into triglycerides, considerable amounts of [2-(3)H]glyceryl trioleate radioactivity were recovered in cell triglycerides. This indicates that at least some VLDL triglycerides were taken up intact. The net uptake of VLDL protein and cholesterol was very small relative to the triglyceride uptake, suggesting that intact triglycerides are transferred from the ascites VLDL to the Ehrlich cells and that hydrolysis occurs after the triglyceride is associated with the cells.  相似文献

Phospholipid metabolism in human neutrophil subfractions   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
We describe a procedure for isolating human neutrophil subfractions by sucrose density centrifugation following nitrogen cavitation. Using this procedure we were able to isolate and characterize a cytosolic fraction, two separate plasma membrane-enriched fractions, and specific and azurophilic granule fractions. We used this procedure to examine the subcellular localization of the enzymes and substrates involved in the release of arachidonic acid from cellular phospholipids in response to whole cell stimulation. Whole cells were prelabeled for 2 h with [3H]arachidonic acid and [14C] stearic acid. When prelabeled cells were challenged with calcium ionophore A23187 (2 microM) for 5 min at 37 degrees C, each membrane-associated fraction, including both plasma membrane fractions and specific and azurophilic granule fractions, exhibited deacylation of phosphatidylinositol (PI) and phosphatidylcholine (PC). The specific granule fraction exhibited the greatest proportion of deacylation from PI while the more dense plasma membrane fraction was deacylated to a much lower extent than the other fractions. In terms of mass, the azurophilic granules deacylated the greatest amount of radiolabeled arachidonic acid. Although all membrane fractions may be sources of arachidonic acid to some extent, the azurophilic granule fraction may contain the largest pool of radiolabeled arachidonic acid that is released upon cell stimulation.  相似文献

The beta-oxidation and esterification of medium-chain fatty acids were studied in hepatocytes from fasted, fed and fructose-refed rats. The beta-oxidation of lauric acid (12:0) was less inhibited by fructose refeeding and by (+)-decanoyl-carnitine than the oxidation of oleic acid was, suggesting a peroxisomal beta-oxidation of lauric acid. Little lauric acid was esterified in triacylglycerol fraction, except at high substrate concentrations or in the fructose-refed state. With [1-14C]myristic acid (14:0), [1-14C]lauric acid (12:0), [1-14C]octanoic acid (8:0) and [2-14C]adrenic acid (22:4(n - 6] as substrate for hepatocytes from carbohydrate-refed rats, a large fraction of the 14C-labelled esterified fatty acids consisted of newly synthesized palmitic acid (16:0), stearic acid (18:0) and oleic acid (18:1) while intact [1-14C]oleic acid substrate was esterified directly. With [9,10-3H]myristic acid as the substrate, small amounts of shortened 3H-labelled beta-oxidation intermediates were found. With [U-14C]palmitic acid, no shortened fatty acids were detected. It was concluded that when the mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation is down-regulated such as in the carbohydrate-refed state, medium-chain fatty acids can partly be retailored to long-chain fatty acids by peroxisomal beta-oxidation followed by synthesis of C16 and C16 fatty acids which can then stored as triacylglycerol.  相似文献

The cytoskeletal protein vinculin is acylated by myristic acid   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4  
In non-muscle cells the mechanism by which microfilament bundles interact with the plasma membrane is unclear. Vinculin, a 130 kDa protein found in adhesion plaques, has been postulated to have a role as a membrane anchor for microfilaments and we have investigated the biochemistry of this molecule in more detail. We report that a fraction of vinculin in chick embryo fibroblasts is acylated by myristic acid. This modification was present in both membrane-bound, cytoskeletal and cytosolic vinculin and thus did not determine preferential subcellular localisation. Myristic acid was also present in vinculin from cells transformed by Rous sarcoma virus.  相似文献

1. The relationship between the rate of [1-14C] acetate incorporation into the fatty acids of renal papillary lipids and the acetate concentration in the medium has been measured. 2. [1-14C] acetate was incorporated mainly into fatty acids of phospholipids and triacylglycerols. Only a few per cent of the radioactivity was found in the free fatty acid fraction. 3. The major part of the [1-14C] acetate was found to be incorporated by a chain elongation of prevalent fatty acids. The major component of the poly-unsaturated fatty acids in triacylglycerols and the major product of fatty acid synthesis from [1-14C] acetate in vitro was demonstrated by mass spectrometry to be docosa-7,10,13,16-tetraenoic acid. 4. The radioactivity of docosa-7,10,13,16-tetraenoic acid accounted for 40% of total radioactivity in triacylglycerol fatty acids (lipid droplet fraction) and 20% of total radioactivity in membrane phospholipid fatty acids.  相似文献
