Diacylglycerol, phosphatidic acid, and the converting enzyme, diacylglycerol kinase, in the nucleus

Biochimica Et Biophysica Acta - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids, 2006
There exists phosphoinositide (PI) cycle in the nucleus, which is operated differentially from the classical PI cycle at the plasma membrane. Evidence has been accumulated that nuclear PIs and the related enzymes are closely involved in a variety of nuclear processes, although the details remain to be elucidated. In this mini review, some components of

Release of diacylglycerol moieties from various glycosyl diacylglycerols

Analytical Biochemistry, 1984
Periodic acid oxidation in methanol followed by incubation with 1, 1-dimethylhydrazine results in release of diacylglycerols from 1,2-diacyl-3-glycosyl-sn-glycerols. During hydrazinolysis of oxidized monogalactosyl diacylglycerol, an intermediate hydrazone derivative was observed which was isolated and identified.

Diacylglycerol Kinase

2009
Diacylglycerol kinase (DGK, EC 2.7.1.107) is a lipid kinase that phosphorylates diacylglycerol (DAG) to generate phosphatidic acid (PA). DGK belongs to a well-conserved family of proteins found in diverse species, such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Drosophila melanogaster, Caenorhabditis elegans, mammals, plants, and bacteria (Merida et al.

Diacylglycerol kinases in cancer

Advances in Biological Regulation, 2017
Diacylglycerol kinases (DGK) are a family of enzymes that catalyze the transformation of diacylglycerol into phosphatidic acid. In T lymphocytes, DGKα and ζ limit the activation of the PLCγ/Ras/ERK axis, providing a critical checkpoint to inhibit T cell responses. Upregulation of these isoforms limits Ras activation, leading to hypo-responsive, anergic

Effect of phospholipase A2 on rat liver microsomal diacylglycerol cholinephosphotransferase, diacylglycerol ethanolaminephosphotransferase and diacylglycerol acyltransferase

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Lipids and Lipid Metabolism, 1978
Abstract Rat liver microsomes were treated with snake venom (Naja naja) phospholipase A2. Effect of the degradation of microsomal major phospholipids were studied on the activities of diacylglycerol cholinephosphotransferase (EC 2.7.8.2), diacylglycerol ethanolaminephosphotransferase (EC 2.7.8.1) and diacylglycerol acyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.20).

Diacylglycerol on lipid metabolism

Current Opinion in Lipidology, 2003
Diacylglycerol is an intermediate product of triacylglycerol hydrolysis and comprises up to 10% of glycerides in plant-derived edible fats and oils. Recent developments in oil chemistry have led to the availability of a novel diacylglycerol oil for clinical studies.

Evolution of the diacylglycerol lipases

Progress in Lipid Research, 2016
Diacylglycerol lipases (DGLs) mainly catalyze "on-demand" biosynthesis of bioactive monoacylglycerols (MAGs) with different long fatty acyl chains, including 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG), 2-linoleoylglycerol (2-LG), 2-oleoylglycerol (2-OG) and 2-palmitoylglycerol (2-PG).

Diacylglycerol – when is it an intracellular messenger?

Biochimica Et Biophysica Acta - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids, 1998
Distinct, structurally different forms of sn-1,2-diacylglycerol are found in cells, these are polyunsaturated, mono- or di-unsaturated and saturated. The pathways that generate or metabolise sn-1, 2-diacylglycerol are reviewed. The evidence that it is the polyunsaturated forms of sn-1,2-diacylglycerol, but the more saturated forms of phosphatidate ...

Studies of diacylglycerol cholinephosphotransferase and diacylglycerol ethanolaminephosphotransferase activities in Tetrahymena microsomes

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Lipids and Lipid Metabolism, 1981
Microsomes isolated from Tetrahymena pyriformis synthesized phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine by CDPcholine: 1,2-diacylglycerol cholinephosphotransferase (EC 2.7.8.2) and CDPethanolamine: 1,2-diacylglycerol ethanolaminephosphotransferase (EC 2.7.8.1), utilizing ethanol-dispersed dioleoglycerol.

Phosphorylation of diacylglycerols

Chemistry of Natural Compounds, 1983
The bulk of the oleic -the 18:1(9) -acid is distributed almost uniformyl between the sn-! and sn-2 positions, and only 24% of its total amount is bound in the sn-3 position. The distribution of the 18:1(6) acid is distinguished by a far higher specificity in relation to the extreme positions.
