Phosphatidylethanolamine synthesis in castor bean endosperm.
Phosphatidylethanolamine synthesis by CDP-ethanolamine:1,2-diacylglycerol ethanolaminephosphotransferase (EC 2.7.8.1) from the endoplasmic reticulum of castor bean (Ricinus communis L. var. Hale) endosperm was characterized. The Michaelis-Menten constant of the enzyme for CDP-ethanolamine was approximately 8.0 micromolar. The pH optimum was 6.5 and a divalent cation was an absolute requirement ...
متن کاملPhosphatidylcholine synthesis in castor bean endosperm.
Three pathways for phosphatidylcholine synthesis were assayed in castor bean (Ricinus communis var. Hale) endosperm. Phosphatidylethanolamine: S-adenosylmethionine methyl transferase occurred predominantly in the endoplasmic reticulum fraction, but some activity appeared in the mitochondria. Phosphorylcholine glyceride transferase occurred exclusively in the endoplasmic reticulum. The phosphory...
متن کاملPhosphatidylserine synthesis in castor bean endosperm.
Phosphatidylserine synthesis by the endoplasmic reticulum fraction isolated from castor bean (Ricinus communis var. Hale) endosperm was assayed by measuring the incorporation of (14)C-l-serine into chloroform-soluble material. Both phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylethanolamine were identified as products. The incorporation required calcium ions and showed an optimum pH of 7.8 in 2 mm CaCl(2)....
متن کاملQuinolinic Acid Phosphoribosyltransferase from Castor Bean Endosperm
Quinolinic acid phosphoribosyltransf erase was purified WI-fold from the endosperm of etiolated seedlings of Ricinus communis L. Sodium dodecyl sulfate disc gel electrophoresis indicated that the enzyme was homogeneous but on analytical disc gel electrophoresis at pH 7.0 and 8.3 the isolated native protein exhibited three closely migrating bands. The three proteins were of the same molecular we...
متن کاملAccumulation of free ricinoleic Acid in germinating castor bean endosperm.
Lipids from the endosperm of germinating castor bean (Ricinus communis var. Hale) were separated by thin layer chromatography and quantitated by gas chromatography. During the later stages of lipid breakdown (4-6 days germination at 30 C), several lipid classes were found in addition to the storage triglycerides, which are triricinoleins for the most part. One was identified as free ricinoleic ...
