The utilization of ethanolamine and serine for ethanolamine phosphoglyceride synthesis by human Y79 retinoblastoma cells.
Phospholipid synthesis was investigated in human Y79 retinoblastoma cells, a cultured cell line of retinal origin that retains many neural characteristics. Ethanolamine is taken up by Y79 cells through a high-affinity transport system and is utilized to synthesize ethanolamine and choline phosphoglycerides. High-affinity ethanolamine uptake has a K'm of 40.6 microM and a V'max of 1.06 nmol/min/...
متن کاملSynthesis of ethanolamine phosphoglycerides by human platelets.
Platelet homogenates contain an ethanolaminephosphotransferase (EC 2.7.8.1) that catalyzes the synthesis of ethanolamine phosphoglycerides from cytidine-5'-diphosphate ethanolamine and 1-radyl-2-acyl-sn-glycerols. The enzyme is particulate-bound and requires Mn2+ and bile salts for optimal activity. The apparent Km of the enzyme for cytidine-5'-diphosphate ethanolamine is 1.6 X 10(-5) M when th...
متن کاملEthanolamine Utilization in Bacteria
Ethanolamine (EA) is a valuable source of carbon and/or nitrogen for bacteria capable of its catabolism. Because it is derived from the membrane phospholipid phosphatidylethanolamine, it is particularly prevalent in the gastrointestinal tract, which is membrane rich due to turnover of the intestinal epithelium and the resident microbiota. Intriguingly, many gut pathogens carry the eut (ethanola...
متن کاملComparative genomics of ethanolamine utilization.
Ethanolamine can be used as a source of carbon and nitrogen by phylogenetically diverse bacteria. Ethanolamine-ammonia lyase, the enzyme that breaks ethanolamine into acetaldehyde and ammonia, is encoded by the gene tandem eutBC. Despite extensive studies of ethanolamine utilization in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, much remains to be learned about EutBC structure and catalytic mechan...
متن کاملBiosynthetic utilization of ethanolamine by Erwinia carotovora.
The purified obelin was electrophoresed on 7 % polyacrylamide gels in Tris-glycine buffer, pH 8.3, containing 0.1 mM-EDTA. Gels stained with Coomassie Brilliant Blue showed a single band at the buffer front, which correlated in position with luminescent activity. This activity could be eluted from unstained gel slices by soaking them overnight in 0.1 mM-EDTA-lOmM-Hepes, pH 7.0, at 4°C. Obelin i...
