Abstract: | Etiolated wheat leaves were fed with [l-14C]-acetate and chaseexperiments were performed in the dark or under light. In bothconditions, in extraplastidial membranes, phosphatidylglycerol(PG) and phosphatidylcholine (PC) were fatty acid donors, PGand PC providing palmitate and oleate respectively. The labelof linoleate increased only in phosphatidylethanolamine (PE).In etioplasts, PG was also a palmitate donor but PC, ratherpoor in labelled oleate, was an oleate acceptor, contrary towhat was observed in chloroplasts. The galactolipids and sulfoquinovosyldiacylglycerol(SL) remained poorly labelled. When isolated etioplasts were labelled in vitro, during thefirst two hours they incorporated the same amount of [l-14C]-acetatein their phospholipids, whether they were in the presence orin the absence of extraplastidial membranes. Afterwards, theaddition of a mitochondrial fraction enhanced the label of PG,mainly in palmitate, then in oleate, and to some extent, andonly under light in palmitoleate and linoleate. The mitochondrialfraction might be regarded here as a supplier of labelled precursorto he etioplasts which rapidly accumulated radioactivity inpalmitoyl-PG. In PC of isolated etioplasts, only palmitate wasfairly labelled. The deficiency in labelled oleoyl-PC in plastidsof dark-grown plants and of linoleoyl-PC in extraplastidialmembranes might be the reason for the delay in the labellingof unsaturated galactolipids. 1 (Received March 9, 1987; Accepted August 21, 1987) |
