Exclusive localization in peroxisomes of dihydroxyacetone phosphate acyltransferase and alkyl-dihydroxyacetone phosphate synthase in rat liver.
Dihydroxyacetone phosphate acyl transferase (DHAP-AT), alkyl dihydroxyacetone phosphate synthase (alkyl-DHAP-synthase), and glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase (GPAT) activities were investigated under optimal assay conditions using highly purified organelle preparations. The data presented clearly indicate that GPAT activity was mainly localized in mitochondria and microsomes, whereas DHAP-AT...
متن کاملEnzymatic reduction of alkyl and acyl derivatives of dihydroxyacetone phosphate by reduced pyridine nucleotides.
The reductions of either acyl or alkyl derivatives of dihydroxyacetone phosphate by enzymes from ascites tumor cell microsomes with NADPH were studied. The reaction rate was measured by determining the formation of labeled lipid from [4-3H]NADPH. The products were characterized as either 1-acyl or 1-alkyl [2-3H]glycerol d-phosphate formed from the corresponding keto derivatives. The enzymes wer...
متن کاملA Novel Convenient Preparation of Dihydroxyacetone Phosphate and Its Use in Enzymatic Aldol Reactions
A new preparation of the stable barium salt of 2,5-bis(phosphonooxymethvl)-2.5-diethoxv-1.4-dioxane Ba-2 is described, which bv treatment with DOWEX 50 B+ gives dihydroxyacetone ph&phate (DHAP) in high yield. DHAP prepared by this method was used for aldolase-catalyzed condensations. An increasing number of papers dealing with enzymatic aldol reactions demonstrates their synthetic utility 1,2,4...
متن کاملThe enzymatic exchange of the acyl group of acyl dihydroxyacetone phosphate with free fatty acids.
Acyl dihydroxyacetone phosphate (acyl DHAPl) has been shown to be a precursor of glycerolipids in a variety of systems (1,2). Acyl DHAP has also been found to be the precursor of glycerol ether lipids (1,Z). It has been shown that acyl DHAP reacts with long chain alcohols to form l-O-alkyl dihydroxyacetone-3-phosphate (alkyl DHAPl) (3,4). During the investigation of the formation of the ether b...
متن کاملAcyl dihydroxyacetone phosphate: precursor of alkyl ethers.
1-0-Alkyl dihydroxyacetone phosphate is biosynthesised in guinea pig liver mitochondria and in rat brain microsomes by direct reaction of a long chain alcohol and acyl dihydroxyacetone phosphate. ATP and Mg* are stimulatory but coenzyme A is not necessary for the reaction. 1-0-Alkyl dihydroxyacetone phosphate (alkyl DHAP)l was shown to be biosynthesized from long chain alcohol and DHAP with ATP...
