The alkaline phospholipase A1 of rat liver cytosol.
1. Rat liver cytosol contains a heat-sensitive phospholipase A1 active against phosphatidylethanolamine, 1-acylglycerophosphoethanolamine and, to a very much lesser extent, phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylinositol. 2. Activity towards a pure phosphatidylethanolamine substrate is invoked by the presence of water-soluble cations that do not precipitate at the pH optimum of the enzyme (9.5). I...
متن کاملSubstrate specificity of cis-prenyltransferase in rat liver microsomes.
Long chain cis-prenyltransferase in rat liver microsomes was studied using various allylic isoprenoid substrates. Microsomes could utilize trans-geranyl pyrophosphate, but not cis-geranyl pyrophosphate for polyprenyl pyrophosphate synthesis. Both trans, trans-farnesyl pyrophosphate and trans,cis-farnesyl pyrophosphate were used as substrates with Km values of 24 and 5 microM, respectively. tran...
متن کاملThe substrate specificity of brain microsomal phospholipase D.
Neurotransmitters activate a phospholipase D that is though to specifically hydrolyse phosphatidylcholine. This enzyme has a unique property known as transphosphatidylation: in the presence of an appropriate nucleophilic receptor such as an alcohol, phospholipase D will catalyse the production of phosphatidyl-alcohol. We have studied phospholipase D using an in vitro assay that uses [3H]butanol...
متن کاملSoybean Oil Degumming by Immobilized Phospholipase A1
In the present study, we investigated the ability of an immobilized phospholipase A1 (PLA1) in degumming of soybean oil. The enzyme was immobilized by simple adsorption on bentonite without any further modification. The free and immobilized PLA1 were characterized by Fourier Transform InfraRed (FT-IR) spectroscopy and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). The immobilizat...
متن کاملSubstrate specificity of rat brain ceramidase.
In this study, the substrate specificity of a newly identified rat brain ceramidase (CDase) was investigated. To this end, the major functional groups and stereochemistry of ceramide (Cer) were evaluated for their influence on the hydrolysis of substrate by this CDase. The results showed that, of the four possible stereoisomers of Cer, only the natural d-e-C(18)-Cer isomer was used as substrate...
