Abstract
The acylation of lysophospholipids by rat liver acyltransferases was studied. A comparison between ester and ether lysophospholipids as substrates revealed large differences in substrate properties. For instance, oleic acid from oleoyl-CoA and arachidonic acid from arachidonoyl-CoA were not incorporated into 1-O-octadecyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine under experimental conditions that allowed an optimal transfer of oleic acid and arachidonic acid to 1-O-palmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine. However, we observed an acyl-CoA-independent transfer of arachidonic acid from 1-O-stearoyl-2-O-arachidonoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoinositol to 1-O-octadecyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine.Entities:
