Activation of phospholipid methyltransferase by glucagon in rat hepatocytes.

J G Castaño, S Alemany, A Nieto, J M Mato.   

Abstract

Glucagon produces a time- and dose-dependent activation of phospholipid methyltransferase activity in isolated rat hepatocytes. Half-maximal effect is caused by a dose of glucagon of 1 x 10(-10) M. This activation is due to an increase of the Vmax value of the enzyme, without affecting the Km value for S-adenosylmethionine. Exogenous cyclic AMP added to isolated rat hepatocytes mimics the effect of glucagon, and the activation of phospholipid methyltransferase by a nonsaturating concentration of glucagon is spontaneously reversible within 40 min of incubation.
