Phospholipid Degradation in Membranes of Isolated Soybean Lipid Bodies
نویسنده
چکیده
Membrane degradation was observed in lipid bodies isolated from soybean seeds and incubated at 30°C for 6and 18-day periods. Three events occurred during degradation. Phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) were converted to phosphatidic acid presumably by phospholipase D, but PE decreased even in the absence of phospholipase D enzymic activity. A substance that cochromatographed with cardiolipin appeared as a product after 18 days incubation.!

Isolation and characterization of peanut spherosomes.
Spherosomes of cotyledons of germinating peanuts (Arachis hypogea L.) were examined by electron microscopy and found to be particles about 1.0 to 2.0 mu in diameter bounded by a limiting membrane. Isolated spherosomes appear similar to spherosomes in situ. The isolated spherosomes are composed of 98.1% total lipids, 0.77% phospholipid and 1.27% protein by dry weight. The amounts of protein and ...

Phospholipid polar head group and fatty acid composition were determined for plasma membrane enriched fractions from developing soybean root (Glycine max [L.] Merr. cult. Wells II). Plasma membrane vesicles were isolated from meristematic and mature sections of four-day-old dark grown soybean roots at pH 7.8 and in the presence of 5 millimolar ethylenediaminetetraacetate, 5 millimolar ethyleneg...

Oilseed germination is characterized by the mobilization of storage lipids as a carbon and energy source for embryonic growth. In addition to storage lipid degradation in germinating oilseeds via the direct action of a triacylglycerol lipase (TGL) on the storage lipids, a second degradation pathway that is dependent on a specific lipid body trilinoleate 13-lipoxygenase (13-LOX) has been propose...
متن کاملLipid peroxidation and fluidity of plasma membranes from rat liver and Morris hepatoma 3924A.
Plasma membranes isolated from the fast-growing, maximal-deviation, Morris hepatoma 3924A exhibit remarkable changes in lipid composition, lipid peroxidation and to some extent in the physical state with respect to rat liver plasmalemmas. A correlation appears to exist between the lower phospholipid: protein ratio, higher cholesterol: phospholipid ratio, lower rate of lipid peroxidation and dec...
متن کاملAltered lung phospholipid metabolism in mice with targeted deletion of lysosomal-type phospholipase A2.
Lung surfactant dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) is endocytosed by alveolar epithelial cells and degraded by lysosomal-type phospholipase A2 (aiPLA2). This enzyme is identical to peroxiredoxin 6 (Prdx6), a bifunctional protein with PLA2 and GSH peroxidase activities. Lung phospholipid was studied in Prdx6 knockout (Prdx6-/-) mice. The normalized content of total phospholipid, phosphatidylc...
