Popis: | 1- O -[1′-14C]Hexadecyl ethanediol 2-phosphorylethanolamine was administered to myelinating rat brain in order to establish general patterns of diol phospholipid metabolism and the specific substrate requirements of 1- O -alkyl 2-acyl sn -glycero-3-phosphorylethanolamine desaturase. It was shown that alkyl ethanediol PE was slowly metabolized by oxidative ether bond cleavage. Dehydrogenation to diol plasmalogen did not occur, thus providing further evidence for the high degree of substrate specificity of the desaturase present in brain. |
