Colneleic acid (9-[1'(E),3'(Z)-nonadienyloxy]-8(E)-nonenoic acid) is produced from linoleic acid by the sequential action of 9-lipoxygenase and divinyl ether synthase. We demonstrate that a small fraction of the colneleic acid in potato tubers is esterified in phospholipids. This colneleic acid was
The effect of activation ("aging") of potato tuber slices on their phospholipid metabolism was investigated. Aged slices were incubated with (14)C labeled choline, ethanolamine, methionine, serine, and acetate. In all cases, the incorporation of radioactivity into the lipid fraction increased with
1. An active fraction which stimulates the exchange of phospholipids between microsomal fractions and mitochondria was isolated by gel filtration from potato tuber homogenates. 2. This fraction is probably a protein since the stimulatory factor is nondialyzable and temperature-sensitive. The
Potato aspartic proteases (StAPs) and their swaposin domain (StAsp-PSI) are proteins with cytotoxic activity which involves plasma membrane destabilization. The ability of these proteins to produce cell death varies with the cellular type. Therefore, StAPs and StAsp-PSI selective cytotoxicity could
An enzyme preparation that catalyses the deacylation of mono- and di-acyl phospholipids, galactosyl diglycerides, mono- and di-glycerides has been partially purified from potato tubers. The preparation also hydrolyses methyl and p-nitrophenyl esters and acts preferentially on esters of long-chain
Cytidine-diphospho-choline diacyl-glycerol phosphorylcholine phosphotransferase activity was demonstrated in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) microsomes and the incorporation of cytidine-diphospho[(14)C]choline into phosphatidylcholine was characterized by the time course of (14)C incorporation and the
Actinomycin D prevents the full development in a 24-hour period of both wound respiration and cyanide resistance only when given in the first 10 to 12 hours following the cutting of potato tuber (Solanum tuberosum var. Russet) slices. The capacity for choline incorporation into phosphatidylcholine
In this study, the role of phospholipids in transepithelial transport and the impact on the antioxidant activity of purple sweet potato anthocyanins (PSPAs) was evaluated. PSPAs were purified by column chromatography, and then PSPAs-phospholipids complex (PSPAs-PC) was prepared. In antioxidant assay
The mechanism of translocation of RxLR effectors from plant pathogenic oomycetes into the cytoplasm of their host is currently the object of intense research activity and debate. Here, we report the biochemical and thermodynamic characterization of the Phytophthora infestans effector AVR3a in vitro.
The 17 kDa protein (pr17), the phloem-limited movement protein (MP) of potato leafroll luteovirus (PLRV), is associated with membranous structures and localized to plasmodesmata [Tacke et al. (1993) Virology 197, 274-282; Schmitz, J. (1995) Ph.D. Thesis, University of Cologne]. In planta the protein
Freshly cut slices of potato tuber show an extensive loss of membrane lipid components which may be as great as 35% for phospholipids and 30% for glycolipids, in less than 15 minutes at 3 C. Phosphatidyl-choline, phosphatidyl-ethanolamine and mono- and di-galactosyl diglycerides comprise the bulk of
Microsomal membranes from potato tubers were extracted by acetone solutions of increasing concentrations (5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, 50, 70 and 90 p. cent). Microsomal lipids were progressively extracted: acetone concentrations exceeding 30 p. cent extracted large amounts of membraneous phospholipids
BACKGROUND
In this study, we assessed the actively metabolizing bacteria in the rhizosphere of potato using two potato cultivars, i.e. the genetically-modified (GM) cultivar Modena (having tubers with altered starch content) and the near-isogenic non-GM cultivar Karnico. To achieve our aims, we
A method for rapid isolation of glyco- and phospholipids from potato leaves by a two-fold separation in a thin layer of silica gel is described. Using gas-liquid chromatography, the fatty acid compositions of monogalactosyldiglyceride, digalactosyldiglyceride, sulfolipid, phosphatidyl choline,
