Action and Inhibition of Endogenous Phospholipases during Isolation of Plant Membranes.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Endogenous phospholipase D and phosphatidic acid phosphatase activities were demonstrated in membrane fractions isolated from soybean (Glycine max L.) hypocotyls. Phospholipase D activity was distributed widely among different membrane fractions while phosphatidic acid phosphatase was found predominantly in membranes equilibrating in lower sucrose densities. Phospholipase D action was unaffected by ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, sodium salt or ethylene glycol-bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N'-tetraacetic acid but was prevented by a mixture of 4% choline and 4% ethanolamine. Phosphatidic acid phosphatase was inhibited by 10 millimolar glycerol 1-phosphate or by homogenization media prepared with coconut milk as a solvent instead of water. Under fully protected conditions the phospholipid composition of soybean membrane fractions remained unchanged for at least 1 hour at 20 C. Membranes prepared under protected conditions had low phosphatidic acid contents and the phospholipid compositions closely resembled those of corresponding animal membranes.

Background and Objective: Secretory extracellular Phospholipases are generally involved in hydrolysis of extracellular phospholipids and thus providing nutritive source of carbon, nitrogen, and phosphate. However, intracellular phospholipases perform metabolic functions and adjust biologic activities. Synthesis of phospholipases in different pathogenic microorganisms and their mode of action in...

Endogenous activities of phospholipases A and C in Ureaplasma urealyticum were assayed in cellular fractions of exponential-phase cells. Enzymatic studies indicated that ATPase activity was localized in the plasma membrane fraction and NADH and NADPH dehydrogenase activities were localized in the cytosol fraction. Studies with purified ureaplasma membranes demonstrated that, of three serovars t...
