Abstract: | Enzymes of phospholipid synthesis were studied inMycobacterium smegmatis ATCC 607 grown at 37 and 27°C. The synthesis seemed to be regulated, at least partly, at the phosphatidic acid level by the specificity of the acyltransferases. The individual phospholipid species were found to be regulated at the enzymatic level in the maintenance of membrane fluidity. |
