Influence of pH and chain length on the phase transition of phosphatidic acid
Phosphatidic acids (PA) are normally minor components in natural membranes but there is increasing evidence that these components play a key role in aggregation, fusion and transport processes in cellular membranes.

Lysophosphatidic Acids Induce Contraction of Rat Isolated Colon by Two Different Mechanisms
Lysophosphatidic acids (1-linoleoyl-, 1-linolenoyl, 1-arachidonoyl- and 1-O-hexadecyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphate) induced rapid contraction of rat isolated colon which was dependent on external Ca2+, 1-linolenoyl-lysophosphatidic acid having the greatest ...

Replacement of dietary saturated fatty acids by trans fatty acids lowers serum HDL cholesterol and impairs endothelial function in healthy men and women [PDF]
We tested whether trans fatty acids and saturated fatty acids had different effects on flow-mediated vasodilation (FMD), a risk marker of coronary heart disease (CHD). Consumption of trans fatty acids is related to increased risk of CHD, probably through

Phospholipase PLA2G16 Accelerates the Host Interferon Signaling Pathway Response to FMDV
PLA2G16 is a member of the phospholipase A2 family that catalyzes the generation of lysophosphatidic acids (LPAs) and free fatty acids (FFAs) from phosphatidic acid. Previously, PLA2G16 was found to be a host factor for picornaviruses.

A study of langmuir-blodgett films of valinomycin [PDF]
The deposition and characterisation of Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films containing the ionophore valinomycin are described. In particular, the thesis concentrates on two specific mixed LB systems incorporating the ionophore, namely, arachidic acid ...

Characterisation of PLD activity in real-time [PDF]
PLD catalyses hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho) to produce phosphatidic acid (PtdOH) and choline. PtdOH is a second messenger responsible for a multitude of cell processes, ranging from cytoskeletal rearrangement to cell proliferation ...

Mutants in pathways converging on dicacylglycerol and phosphatidic acid.
(A) Phenotype of mutants related to triglyceride metabolism under screening conditions. Cells of the indicated mutants were grown and subjected to vacuole fragmentation as in Figure 1. Pictures show an overlay of the fluorescence and brightfield channels.

The syntheses of glycerol, glycerophosphates, acylglycerols, and phosphatidic acids under presumed primitive Earth conditions was demonstrated. The abiotic synthesis of glycerol was accomplished by reduction of glyceraldehyde with H2S gas at 85[degrees].
