Proton conduction in phosphatidylethanolamine

Chemistry and Physics of Lipids, 1977
The dc conductivity of polycrystalline phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) was measured in the temperature range 60-120 degrees C. Since no conclusive evidence had so far been obtained for the presence of proteon conduction in this phospholipid, hydrogen gas was shown in the present experiment to evolve during the electrolysis in its premelted state between ...

Bioactive aldehyde-modified phosphatidylethanolamines

Biochimie, 2013
Lipid peroxidation generates a variety of lipid aldehydes, which have been recognized to modify protein and DNA, causing inflammation and cancer. However, recent studies demonstrate that phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) is a major target for these aldehydes, forming aldehyde-modified PEs (al-PEs) as a novel family of mediators for inflammation.

Solid-phase phosphatidylethanolamine synthesis

Reactive Polymers, 1989
Abstract Dipalmitoylphosphatidylethanolamine(DPPE) was prepared from natural phosphatidylethanolamine (cephalin) and palmitic anhydride (PAh) by using polymer-supported trityl as a protective group for the ammo group of cephalin.

Phosphatidylethanolamine plasmalogen enhances the inhibiting effect of phosphatidylethanolamine on  -secretase activity

Journal of Biochemistry, 2014
Plasmalogens (Pls) are widely distributed in the biological membrane of animals and certain anaerobic bacteria, but their functions in the cell membrane are still poorly understood. Decrease of phosphatidylethanolamine plasmalogen (PEPls) in the brain tissue of patients with Alzheimer's disease prompted us to investigate the effect of the membrane ...

Ubiquitination of phosphatidylethanolamine in organellar membranes

Molecular Cell, 2022
The covalent conjugation of ubiquitin family proteins is a widespread post-translational protein modification. In the ubiquitin family, the ATG8 subfamily is exceptional because it is conjugated mainly to phospholipids. However, it remains unknown whether other ubiquitin family proteins are also conjugated to phospholipids.

Phosphatidylethanolamine N-methyltransferase from liver

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Lipids and Lipid Metabolism, 1997
Phosphatidylethanolamine N-methyltransferase (PEMT) converts phosphatidylethanolamine to phosphatidylcholine. Most PEMT activity (PEMT1) is associated with endoplasmic reticulum. A second form of the enzyme (PEMT2) has been localized to the mitochondria-associated membrane. PEMT2 is a 22.5-kDa protein that has been purified from rat liver.

Adhesion between Phosphatidylethanolamine Bilayers

Langmuir, 1996
The goal of this study is to provide additional information on the short-range interactions that determine the adhesion energy between bilayer surfaces. The specific problem concerns the hydration properties of bilayers of the membrane lipid phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), which imbibe much less water than bilayers composed of the other common ...
