Microsomal CTP:choline phosphate cytidylyltransferase: kinetic mechanism of fatty acid stimulation.
Fatty acids are known to cause an increase in the incorporation of radioactive choline into phosphatidylcholine. A coincident increase in membrane cytidylyltransferase activity is well documented. The purpose of the present studies was to determine the direct effects of oleic acid on the kinetic properties of membrane cytidylyltransferase. An examination of the reaction characteristics of membr...
متن کامل2-Aminoethylarsonic acid as an analogue of ethanolamine phosphate. Endowment of ethanolamine-phosphate cytidylyltransferase with CTP pyrophosphatase activity.
2-Aminoethylarsonic acid was tested for its ability to act as a substrate for ethanolamine-phosphate cytidylytransferase as a cytidylyl acceptor in place of ethanolamine phosphate. The expected product, like all mixed anhydrides of arsonic acids, should hydrolyse spontaneously with regeneration of the substrate analogue and CMP formation; such CMP production was observed. The limiting velocity ...
متن کاملEffect of hypoxia on phosphatidylcholine biosynthesis in the isolated hamster heart.
In hamster heart, the majority of the phosphatidylcholine is synthesized via the CDP-choline pathway, and the rate-limiting step of this pathway is catalysed by CTP:phosphocholine cytidylyltransferase (EC 2.7.7.15). We have shown previously [Choy (1982) J. Biol. Chem. 257, 10928-10933] that, in the myopathic heart, the level of cardiac CTP was diminished during the development of the disease. I...
متن کاملActivation of CTP : phosphocholine cytidylyltransferase in rat lung by fatty acids.
CTP : phosphocholine cytidylyltransferase activity exists in both the microsome and cytosol fractions of adult lung, 36 and 59%, respectively. Although these enzyme activities are stimulated in vitro by added lipid activators (i.e. phosphatidylglycerol), there are significant levels of activity in the absence of added lipid. We have removed endogenous lipid material from microsome and cytosol p...
متن کاملFatty acids promote translocation of CTP:phosphocholine cytidylyltransferase to the endoplasmic reticulum and stimulate rat hepatic phosphatidylcholine synthesis.
The mechanism by which fatty acids stimulate the biosynthesis of phosphatidylcholine has been studied in cultured rat hepatocytes. Long chain fatty acids (1 mM) stimulated approximately 1.9-fold [methyl-3H] choline incorporation from phosphocholine into phosphatidylcholine by isolated hepatocytes. Oleate and palmitate (4 mM) enhanced phosphatidylcholine production by 3- and 2.2-fold, respective...
