Choline phospholipids (PLs) such as phosphatidylcholine (PC) and 1-alkyl-2-acyl-sn-glycerophosphocholine are important components for cell membranes and also serve as a source of several lipid mediators.

Aminoglycoside phosphotransferases proteins structure and mechanism [PDF]
Aminoglycoside antibiotics constitute an important class of clinically useful drugs which are imperiled by the emergence of resistant organisms. Aminoglycoside resistance in the clinics is primarily due to the presence of modifying enzymes which N-acetylate, O-adenylate or O-phosphorylate the antibiotics.

The final step of the CDP-ethanolamine pathway is catalyzed by ethanolamine phosphotransferase 1 (EPT1) and choline/EPT1 (CEPT1). These enzymes are likely involved in the transfer of ethanolamine phosphate from CDP-ethanolamine to lipid acceptors such as

Identification of a protein kinase activity that phosphorylates connexin43 in a pH-dependent manner
The carboxyl-terminal (CT) domain of connexin43 (Cx43) has been implicated in both hormonal and pH-dependent gating of the gap junction channel. An in vitro assay was utilized to determine whether the acidification of cell extracts results in the ...

The unphosphorylated EIIA(Ntr) protein represses the synthesis of alkylresorcinols in Azotobacter vinelandii. [PDF]
Upon encystment induction, Azotobacter vinelandii produces the phenolic lipids alkylresorcinols (ARs) that are structural components of the cysts. The enzymes responsible for the ARs synthesis are encoded in the arsABCD operon, whose expression is ...

Protein Model and Function Analysis in Quorum-Sensing Pathway of Vibrio qinghaiensis sp.-Q67
Bioluminescent bacteria are mainly found in marine habitats. Vibrio qinghaiensis sp.-Q67 (Q67), a nonpathogenic freshwater bacterium, has been a focus due to its wide use in the monitoring of environmental pollution and the assessment of toxicity ...

Aminoglycoside 3'-phosphotransferase III, a new phosphotransferase. Resistance mechanism.
The aminoglycoside phosphotransferase of Pseudomonas aeruginosa 21-75 was purified by affinity chromatography using dibekacin-Sephadex 4B or lividomycin A-Sepharose 4B followed by DEAE Sephadex A-50 chromatography. It had activities of both the known aminoglycoside 3'-phosphotransferases I and II, and transferred phosphate from ATP to the 3'-hydroxyl ...
