The measurement of phosphatidate phosphohydrolase in human amniotic fluid.
Phosphatidate phosphohydrolase (EC 3.1.3.4) activity can be found in late gestational human amniotic fluid and is thought to originate in type II alveolar cells of the fetal lungs where it plays an important role in lung surfactant synthesis. In the present study, phosphatidate phosphohydrolase activity was detected and characterized in a 105 000 X g pellet of amniotic fluid using either [32P]p...
متن کاملInvolvement of phosphatidate phosphohydrolase in arachidonic acid mobilization in human amnionic WISH cells.
Prostaglandins are known to play a central role in the initiation of labor in humans, and amnionic cells constitute a major source of these compounds. Prostaglandin synthesis and release by amnion cells in response to hormones and ligands takes place after a characteristic 4-5 h lag. However, we report herein that free arachidonic acid (AA), the metabolic precursor of prostaglandins, can be ind...
متن کاملA rapid sensitive assay for phosphatidate phosphohydrolase.
For a purified preparation of the soluble form of phosphatidate phosphohydrolase (EC 3.1.3.4) from guinea pig cerebral cortex, I-O-alkyl-racglycerol 3-phosphate was found to be accepted as a substrate. This substrate analog was tritium-labeled in order to serve in a rapid sensitive assay for the enzyme, in which labeled I-alkyl glycerol is released. Heat denaturation and enzyme activity depende...
متن کاملThe Relationship between Cation-Induced Substrate Configuration and Enzymatic Activity of Phosphatidate Phosphohydrolase from Human Liver
The mechanism by which bi-and trivalent cations affect human liver phosphatidatephosphohydrolase (PAP) activity was investigated. Bivalent cations up to 1 mM increased PAP activity whereas at higher concentrations the activity of the enzyme decreased. The stimulatory concentration for trivalent cations such as Al3+ and Cr3+, however, was much lower being 2 m M and 1 m M, respectively. All catio...
متن کاملPhosphatidate phosphohydrolase and the regulation of glycerolipid biosynthesis.
Phosphatidate is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of diacylglycerol, triacylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine and CDP-diacylglycerol. In addition, phosphatidate may be subject to degradation by particulate phospholipases. The factors regulating the disposition of phosphatidate have interested numerous investigators. We have studied the reactions of phosphatidate metabol...
