Enzymes of Phosphatidylcholine Synthesis in Lemna, Soybean, and Carrot

Abstract: ABSTRACICell-free extracts from Lemna and suspension cultured carrot (Daucus Carota L.) catalyze S-adenosylmethionine-dependent N-methylations of phosphoethanolamine, phosphomethylethanolamine, and phosphodimethylethanolamine; extracts of suspension cultured soybean (Glycine max), of phosphoethanolamine only. Material pelleted from each tissue between 15,000 and 100,000g catalyzes S-adenosylmethionine-dependent N-methylations of phosphatidylmethylethanolamine and phosphatidyldimethylethanolamine, but not phosp… Show more

“…that of the 25 complemented S. pombe strains recovered, 24 harbored a plasmid encoding PEAMT, for this implies that N-methyltransferases acting on Ptd-EA or EA are either absent or expressed at far lower levels. This evidence reinforces the conclusion from in vivo radiolabeling studies (2-5) and enzyme assays (1,4,17) that in plant leaves the first methylation in the synthesis of Cho moieties takes place exclusively at the phosphobase level.…”

“…Enzyme Assays-PEAMT activity was measured by a modification of published methods (1,4), under conditions in which product formation was proportional to enzyme concentration and time. To compensate for H 2 SO 4 present in the [methyl- 14 C]AdoMet solution, the assay buffer was titrated to a pH such that, after adding [methyl- 14 C]AdoMet and other assay components, the mixture had the desired pH.…”
