Phosphatidylethanolamine from mitochondria and microsomes of guinea pig liver was separated by thin-layer chromatography into eight different classes differing in degree of unsaturation. The fatty acid compositions and molar proportions of each class isolated from microsomes were very similar to the corresponding class in mitochondria. In both organelles about half of the total was dienoic species while tetraenes comprised approximately 20%. Stearic acid was the major saturated fatty acid and in each membrane a greater selectivity for stearate over palmitate was found in each sub-class of phosphatidylethanolamine, when compared with the corresponding class of phosphatidylcholine.Following the intraperitoneal injection of [2-3H]glycerol, the labelling of each molecular class of phosphatidylethanolamine showed very similar progressions in microsomes and mitochondria over a 3 h interval. In both organelles the highest relative specific activity was attained by penta-plus hexaenoic classes, while the large dienoic class had the lowest relative activity, which, however, increased with time. Analysis of the dienoic class of phosphatidylethanolamine from whole liver showed it to be constituted by a rapidly turning over palmitoyl–linoleoyl fraction and a slowly labelled stearoyl–linoleoyl fraction, a pattern also exhibited by dienoic phosphatidylcholines.The similarities in profile of molecular classes of phosphatidylethanolamine and in the kinetics of labelling in vivo point to a close metabolic relation between the lipids of both organelles, suggestive of a transfer of different molecular classes at comparable rates from the endoplasmic reticulum, the site of synthesis, to the mitochondria. This is consistent with numerous other studies in vitro that have demonstrated inter-organelle exchange of lipids.

1. Studies have been made of the effects of different concentrations of either free or esterified linoleic acid on the biohydrogenation of linoleic acid by rumen micro-organisms in vitro. A comparison has been made with the changes which occurred in the fatty acid compositions of rumen free fatty acids and plasma triglycerides of sheep given intraruminal infusions of linoleic acid or maize oil.2. In the in vitro experiments, with increasing concentrations of 18:2 added as the free fatty acid, a decreasing proportion of this 18:2 was hydrogenated to 18:0 andtrans-11-octadecenoic acid accumulated. The accumulation of large amounts oftrans-11-octadecenoic acid was accompanied in all instances by the accumulation of a conjugated diene identified ascis-9,trans-11-octadecadienoic acid. There appeared to be a product–precursor relationship between the conjugated diene and thetrans-11 monoene.3. When linoleic acid was presented in vitro as the triglyceride, the extent to which hydrogenation occurred was, in all instances, greater than when equivalent amounts of 18:2 were presented as the free acid. Only small amounts of thecis-9,trans-11 diene were detected, and there was no apparent product–precursor relationship between this conjugated diene and the C18monoenoic acids. The C18monoenoic acids that accumulated consisted of bothcisandtransisomers; thecisisomers consisted largely ofcis-9- andcis-11-octadecenoic acids, which together comprised about 30% of the C18monoenoic acids present.4. The infusion of free linoleic acid into the rumen of sheep resulted in an increase in the proportion of total 18:1 and a decrease in the proportions of 16:0 and 18:0 in the total rumen free fatty acids. This increase which occurred in the concentration of 18:1 consisted predominantly of thetrans-11 isomer. A concomitant increase in the concentration of the C18trans-11 acid was observed to occur in the fatty acids of the plasma triglycerides. Infusion of maize oil into the rumen of sheep resulted in little change in the fatty acid compositions of either the free fatty acids in the rumen or the triglycerides of the plasma.5. The findings in vitro and in vivo are discussed with reference to each other and with reference to the possibility that biohydrogenation of 18:2 derived from the triglyceride proceeds by a different pathway from that of 18:2 presented as the free acid.
