Diether Analogues of Lecithins
Considerable interest has developed recently in naturally occurring phosphatides containing ether groups. Two classes of ether-containing phosphatides can be envisaged, i.e. monoether, monoester phosphatides, and diether phosphatides. To date, t,he only monoether, monoester phosphatides known to occur naturally are analogues of phosphatidylethanolamine (1-4) and phosphatidylcholine (5, 6). A ch...
متن کاملFurther observations on the biosynthesis of squalene.
We have previously reported that in the synthesis of squalene from 6 molecules of 5-Dt-mevalonic acid in crude yeast extracts, 10 out of a possible 12 atoms of deuterium are retained, and that the deficit of 2 atoms of deuterium is due to losses occurring when the central carbon-carbon bond of squalene is formed (1, 2). These conclusions were based on the following experimental findings: (a) sq...
متن کاملFurther study on the turnover calculation of lung lecithins.
Using the data reported previously by Moriya and Kanoh, the metabolic turnover of rat lung lecithins was calculated on the basis of the new assumption that the formation rate (Va) of lecithins from diacylglycerols did not equal the disappearance rate (Vb) of lecithins because of the presence of precursors other than diacylglycerols. The ratio of Va/Vb was almost the same in dienoic lecithin as ...
متن کاملFurther Observations on the Source of Nitrogen in Phenazine Biosynthesis
It is concluded from experiments with (S)-[C015NH2]glutamine and [15N]ammonium sulphate that the biosynthesis of iodinin (1), in Brevibacterium iodinum, and of phenazine-1-carboxylic acid (7), in Pseudomonas aureofaciens, is primarily from a single nitrogen source (glutamine) and that the phenazines are constituted by combination of two units of the same precursor, as 5. Some observations are m...
متن کاملThe fractionation of lecithins and cephalins.
The lecithins and cephalins are complex mixtures of chemical entities differing from each other (a) in their component fatty acids, (h) in the case of the cephalins, in the nitrogenous constituent, and (c) in the point of substitution of t.he phosphoric acid-base group in the molecule. Power and Tutin (I) were the first to question the uniformity of the glycerophosphoric acids of lecithin. In 1...
