For the first time, an active fatty-acid metabolism is indicated for triacylglycerols (TAG) of developing sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) seeds. When the developing seeds were transferred to low temperature, the total amount of oleate found in TAG decreased
as that of linoleate increased, while the contents of total lipids and TAG remained unchanged. These results suggest that
oleate from TAG was used for desaturation. This occurred first in microsomal TAG, but after a long cold period it was observed
mainly in the oil-body fraction. Thesn-2 position of TAG was preferentially enriched in linoleate. Apparently, more linoleate than necesary for the maintenance
of membrane fluidity was synthesized at the expense of TAG oleate. 相似文献

A method has been developed that permits the quantitative analysis of [14C]acyl-acyl carrier proteins and [14C]acyl CoAs from a typical reaction mixture. The method is based on (a) the initial extraction of free fatty acids and the less polar lipids into petroleum ether from aqueous isopropanol; (b) the precipitation of [14C]acyl-acyl carrier proteins in the presence of ammonium sulfate and chloroform-methanol; and (c) the final separation of acyl CoAs from the more polar lipids by selective adsorption on neutral alumina gel. All fractions can then be analyzed for the composition of complex lipids and 14C-labeled fatty acids by the usual methods. 相似文献

Temperature and oxygen regulation of oleate desaturation in developing sunflower (Helianthus annuus) seeds 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The effect of low (10°C) and high (30°C) temperature on in vivo oleate desaturation has been studied in developing sunflower ( Helianthus annuus L.) seeds under conditions of different oxygen availability (capitulum, detached achenes or peeled seeds). In seeds remaining in the capitulum, only a part of the oleate newly synthesized at high temperature was desaturated to linoleate, whereas more oleate than that synthesized de novo was desaturated at low temperature. Achenes were only able to significantly desaturate oleate at low temperatures. In contrast, oleate desaturation was detected in peeled seeds incubated at low and high temperatures, showing the highest rate at 20°C. Hull removing dramatically increased the activity of the microsomal oleate desaturase (FAD2, EC 1.3.1.35) at all studied temperatures, although a long-term inactivation of the enzyme was observed at high temperatures. Low oxygen concentration (1–2%) obtained by respiration of peeled seeds incubated in sealed vials, brought about the inactivation of the enzyme. All these data suggest that temperature regulates oleate desaturation controlling the amount of oleate and the FAD2 activity. In addition, this enzyme seems to be also regulated by the availability of oxygen, which is affected inside the achene by its diffusion through the hull, and the competition with respiration, both factors being temperature-dependent. 相似文献

Differences in high-resolution two-dimensional gel electrophoresis patterns of micro-somal proteins from developing normal sunflower ( Helianthus annuus L.) seeds before and after cold-induction, and also from normal and a high oleic sunflower mutant have been studied in order to detect the polypeptides associated with the microsomal Δl2 -desaturase activity and its regulation by temperature. Proteins were obtained from developing seeds of two isogenic sunflower lines HA-89 (normal) and HA-OL9 (high oleic) which greatly differed in linoleic acid content and "in vitro" oleate desaturase activity. In the high oleic mutant, four polypeptides of about 32 kDa and two of 33 kDa were found to change in position, to the same extent, toward a lower isoelectric point in the high oleic mutant. Also, two polypeptides, of 32 and 49 kDa each, appeared in the mutant. Quantitative differences between cold-induced seeds (10°C, 24 h) and their non-induced controls were found. One polypeptide of 43 kDa decreased in the cold-treated seeds and two others, of 30 and 32 kDa each, increased markedly after cold induction. Some of these polypeptides could be related to oleate desatnrase activity or its regulation by temperature. 相似文献

Oleoyl-phosphatidylcholine desaturase (FAD2) is a key enzyme involved in fatty acid desaturation in oilseeds, which is affected by environmental temperature. The results of this study show that FAD2 is regulated in vivo via temperature-dependent endogenous oxygen concentrations in developing sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) seeds. By combining in vivo oxygen profiling, in situ hybridization of FAD2 genes, an assay of energy status, fatty acid analysis, and an in vitro FAD2 enzyme activity assay, it is shown that: (i) the oil-storing embryo is characterized by a very low oxygen level that is developmentally regulated. Oxygen supply is mainly limited by the thin seed coat. (ii) Elevations of external oxygen supply raised the energy status of seed and produced a dramatic increase of the FAD2 enzyme activity as well as the linoleic acid content. (iii) A clear negative correlation exists between temperature and internal oxygen concentration. The changes occurred almost instantly and the effect was fully reversible. The results indicate that the internal oxygen level acts as a key regulator for the activity of the FAD2 enzyme. It is concluded that a major mechanism by which temperature modifies the unsaturation degree of the sunflower oil is through its effect on dissolved oxygen levels in the developing seed. 相似文献

Callus cultures from olive (Olea europaea L.) were used to study characteristics of desaturation in this oil-rich tissue. The incorporation of [1-(14)C]oleate and [1-(14)C]linoleate into complex lipids and their further desaturation was followed in incubations of up to 48 h. Both radiolabelled fatty acids were rapidly incorporated into lipids, especially phosphatidylcholine and triacylglycerol. Radiolabelling of these two lipids peaked after 1-4 h, after which it fell. In contrast, other phosphoglycerides and the galactosylglycerides were labelled in a more sustained manner. [1-(14)C]Linoleate was almost exclusively found in the galactolipids. With [1-(14)C]linoleate as a precursor, the only significant desaturation to linolenate was in the galactolipids. Monogalactosyldiacylglycerol was the first lipid in which [1-(14)C]linoleate and [1-(14)C]linolenate appeared after incubation of the calli with [1-(14)C]oleate and [1-(14)C]linoleate, respectively. The presence of radioactivity in the plastidial lipids shows that both [1-(14)C]oleate and [1-(14)C]linoleate can freely enter the chloroplast. Two important environmental effects were also examined. Raised incubation temperatures (30-35 degrees C) reduced oleate desaturation and this was also reflected in the endogenous fatty acid composition. Low light also caused less oleate desaturation. The data indicate that lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase is important for the entry of oleate and linoleate into olive callus lipid metabolism and phospholipid:diacylglycerol acyltransferase may be involved in triacylglycerol biosynthesis. In addition, it is shown that plastid desaturases are mainly responsible for the production of polyunsaturated fatty acids. Individual fatty acid desaturases were differently susceptible to environmental stresses with FAD2 being reduced by both high temperature and low light, whereas FAD7 was only affected by high temperature. 相似文献

The excavations carried out in the cave of Santa Ana (Cáceres, Spain), cave of the karstic network of the “Calerizo” of Cáceres, enabled us to know the existence, in stratigraphy, of the three lito-techniques modes which characterize the industrial development of lower and middle Pleistocene in the Iberian Peninsula. On standby of new research, the results obtained until now permit us two work out a diachronic assumption of technical evolution. In the Iberian Peninsula, there are only two karstic systems where we can fallow this technological development; one is the “Sierra de Atapuerca” (Burgos) and the other is the “Calerizo de Cáceres” (Cáceres). 相似文献

Microsomal membrane preparations from the immature cotyledons of safflower (Carthamus tinctorius) catalysed the interconversion of the neutral lipids, mono-, di-, and triacylglycerol. Membranes were incubated with neutral
lipid substrates, 14C-labelled either in the acyl or glycerol moiety, and the incorporation of radioactivity into other complex lipids determined.
It was clear that diacylglycerol gave rise to triacylglycerol and monoacylglycerol as well as phosphatidylcholine. Radioactivity
from added [14C] triacylglycerol was to a small extent transferred to diacylglycerol whereas added [14C] monoacylglycerol was rapidly converted to diacylglycerols and triacylglycerols. The formation of triacylglycerol from diacylglycerol
occurred in the absence of acyl-CoA and hence did not involve diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DAGAT) activity. Monoacylglycerol
was not esterified by direct acylation from acyl-CoA. We propose that these reactions were catalyzed by a diacylglycerol:
diacylglycerol transacylase which yielded triacylglycerol and monoacylglycerol, the reaction being freely reversible. The
specific activity of the transacylase was some 25% of the diacylglycerol acyltransferase activity and, hence, during the net
accumulation of oil, substantial newly formed triacylglycerol equilibrated with the diacylglycerol pool. In its turn the diacylglycerol
rapidly interconverted with phosphatidylcholine, the major complex lipid substrate for Δ12 desaturation. Hence, the oleate
from triacylglycerols entering phosphatidylcholine via this route could be further desaturated to linoleate. A model is presented
which reconciles these observations with our current understanding of fatty acid desaturation in phosphatidylcholine and oil
assembly in oleaceous seeds.
