Abstract: | Abstract In Bacillus subtilis , the synthesis of phosphatidylglycerol, the more reactive phospholipid, was investigated in vitro. The phosphatidylglycerophosphate synthetase was exclusively localized in the membrane fraction. Three phospholipids (phosphatidylglycerophosphate, phosphatidylglycerol and diphosphatidylglycerol) were synthesized by this fraction. Exogenous CDP-diglyceride and dCDP-diglyceride were substrates with the same K m (0.11 mM). In coupled system with CDP-diglyceride synthetase, endogenous dCDP-diglyceride was a less effective substrate than CDP-diglyceride. |
