Biochemical characterization of the initial steps of the Kennedy pathway in Trypanosoma brucei : the ethanolamine and choline kinases [PDF]

, 2008
Note related output below contains correction of this paper.Ethanolamine and choline are major components of the trypanosome membrane phospholipids, in the form of GPEtn (glycero-phosphoethanolamine) and GPCho (glycerophosphocholine).

Identification and characterization of human ethanolaminephosphotransferase1

Journal of Lipid Research, 2007
CDP-ethanolamine:diacylglycerol ethanolaminephosphotransferase (EPT) catalyzes the transfer of phosphoethanolamine from CDP-ethanolamine to diacylglycerol to produce phosphatidylethanolamine (PE).

Implications of mitochondrial phosphatidylethanolamine in neuronal health and neurodegeneration

Neural Regeneration Research
Phosphatidylethanolamine is a major phospholipid class abundant in the brain, particularly in the inner leaflet of the plasma and mitochondrial membranes. Although it is primarily synthesized from phosphatidylserine via decarboxylation in mitochondria or

Identification of biosynthetic precursors for the endocannabinoid anandamide in the rat brain

Journal of Lipid Research, 2008
Anandamide is an endogenous signaling lipid that binds to and activates cannabinoid receptors in the brain and peripheral tissues. The endogenous precursors of ananda­mide, N-arachidonoyl phosphatidylethanolamines (NArPEs), are a family of complex ...

Use of the isolated perfused rat lung in studies on lung lipid metabolism

Journal of Lipid Research, 1973
A procedure for the use of the isolated perfused rat lung in studies on metabolic regulation has been developed. The procedure, reasonably uncomplicated, yet physiological, maintains the lung so that edema is not observed.

Lipid bilayer composition influences small multidrug transporters

, 2008
Background: Membrane proteins are influenced by their surrounding lipids. We investigate the effect of bilayer composition on the membrane transport activity of two members of the small multidrug resistance family; the Escherichia coli transporter, EmrE

Sugar-based bactericides targeting phosphatidylethanolamine-enriched membranes [PDF]

, 2018
Anthrax is an infectious disease caused by Bacillus anthracis, a bioterrorism agent that develops resistance to clinically used antibiotics. Therefore, alternative mechanisms of action remain a challenge.

Differential effects of conjugated linoleic acid isomers on macrophage glycerophospholipid metabolism[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2010
Conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) are dietary fatty acids. Whereas cis-9,trans-11-(c9,t11)-CLA can be found in meat and dairy products, trans-9,trans-11-(t9,t11)-CLA is a constituent of vegetable oils.

Exchange of phospholipid classes between liver microsomes and plasma: comparison of rat, rabbit, and guinea pig

Journal of Lipid Research, 1971
Rat and guinea pig liver microsomes labeled with phospholipid 32P were incubated with rat, guinea pig, and rabbit plasma in a KC1–Tris–EDTA buffer. A net transfer of microsomal phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine to plasma was observed.
