Cell-free homogenates of spinach leaves incorporated glycerophosphate-32P into phosphatides when supplied with adenosine triphosphate, Mg++and coenzyme A (CoA). Most of the activity of the homogenate was associated with the microsome fraction sedimented at 104,000 × g, but some activity was also present in the chloroplast fraction. In all systems, most of the32P incorporated appeared in phosphatide acid (+ lysophosphatidic acid), with small to trace amounts in phosphatidyl glycerol and phosphatidyl inositol. Coenzyme A and adenosine triphosphate + Mg++were obligatory cofactors for the incorporation of α-glycerophosphate-32P but acetate + bicarbonate, cytidine triphosphate, or light were not essential. The results demonstrate the presence of acyl-CoA:L-glycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase in the microsome fraction of spinach leaves and also indicate the existence of enzyme systems catalyzing the conversion of phosphatidic acid to phosphatidyl inositol and phosphatidyl glycerol.

The lipids of alfalfa were analyzed during artificial hardening. An increase in fatty acids, particularly linoleic acid; phospholipids; and triglycerides was observed in leaves, stems, and roots. The largest increase in phospholipids, rich in linoleic acid, occurred in the roots. The desaturation of the fatty acids was increased; this increase in desaturation was slight in the phospholipids, but pronounced in the triglycerides. The galactolipids were apparently not affected by the treatment. The level of trans-3-hexadecenoic acid, which is present only in phosphatidyl glycerol, was markedly depressed during hardening.

Fatty acids in marine algae have attracted the attention of natural chemists because of their biological activity. The fatty acid compositions of the Solieriaceae families (Rhodophyceae, Gaigartinales) provide interesting information that unusual cyclic fatty acids have been occasionally found. A survey was conducted to profile the characteristic fatty acid composition of the red alga Solieria pacifica (Yamada) Yoshida using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), infrared spectroscopy (IR), and proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-NMR). In S. pacifica, two cyclopentyl fatty acids, 11-cyclopentylundecanoic acid (7.0%), and 13-cyclopentyltridecanoic acid (4.9%), and a cyclopropane fatty acid, cis-11,12-methylene-hexadecanoic acid (7.9%) contributed significantly to the overall fatty acid profile. In particular, this cyclopropane fatty acid has been primarily found in bacteria, rumen microorganisms or foods of animal origin, and has not previously been found in any other algae. In addition, this alga contains a significant amount of the monoenoic acid cis-11-hexadecenoic acid (9.0%). Therefore, cis-11,12-methylene-hexadecanoic acid in S. pacifica was likely produced by methylene addition to cis-11-hexadecenoic acid.

Abstract Background and Aims Bardet Biedl Syndrome (BBS) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by a wide range of organ dysfunction, including kidney disease. The severity of renal dysfunction is highly variable in this setting, ranging from tubular defects to the end stage renal disease, with poor genotype-phenotype correlation. Proteomics and metabolomics are powerful tools able to contribute to the better understanding of molecular basis of disease conditions. Our previous studies demonstrated that the urinary proteomic pattern of BBS patients differed from that of healthy subjects, with a set of deregulated proteins including cell adhesion and extracellular matrix organization proteins (1). The present study aims to characterize urine metabolomic profile of BBS patients, in order to identify both 1) potential disease biomarkers and 2) aberrant metabolic pathways underlying renal disease Method To this end, in the pilot study urine samples have been collected from 14 adult BBS patients and have been compared with healthy volunteers, using an untargeted strategy. In the confirmation study, 24 BBS patients with wide range of kidney dysfunction have been enrolled, and additional control groups, besides healthy subjects, were included: 1) age-gender-matched chronic kidney disease patients by other causes and 2) obese individuals. Results Several metabolites were de-regulated in BBS patients compared with normal subjects (lactic acid, glycolic acid,3-Hydroxypropionic acid, pyruvic acid, 3-hydroxyisobutyric acid, 2-ethyl-3-hydroxy-propionic acid, succinic acid, fumaric acid, erythropentonic acid, 2-hydroxyglutaric acid, 4-hydroxyphenyllactic acid, 3,4-pyridinedicarboxylic acid, retinoic acid, 4-hydroxyphenylacetic acid, palmitic acid, 9-Hexadecenoic acid, oleic acid and 9-Octadecenoic acid). The clusterization performed by MetaboAnalyst tool, revealed a possible deregulation of different metabolic pathways, including glycolysis, TCA cycle, pyruvate metabolism, lipids biosynthesis and glutamate metabolism (p-value <0.01) (figure 1); some of these pathways were described as de-regulated in other ciliopathies (2). In the confirmation study (on-going studies) some metabolites, including lactic acid and intermediates of Krebs cycle, correlated with kidney dysfunction only in the BBS group. Conclusion These findings suggest that urine metabolomic fingerprint of BBS patients is different from that of healthy subjects and indicate a possible deregulation of several metabolic pathways; some urinary molecules correlated with kidney dysfunction only in BBS patients, suggesting the specificity of these results.
