Concept explainers
(a)
To determine: The products obtained when 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-3-phosphatidylserine is hydrolyzed by phospholipase A1.
Concept introduction: 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-3-phosphatidylserine is a glycerophospholipid, in which the phosphorylserine moiety occupies the glycerol substitution site. It has a molecular formula of C40 H76 NO10 P. Phospholipases are the enzyme that hydrolyzes the phospholipids into the fatty acids and other lipophilic substances.
(b)
To determine: The products obtained when 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-3-phosphatidylserine is hydrolyzed by phospholipase A2.
Concept introduction: 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-3-phosphatidylserine is a glycerophospholipid, in which the phosphorylserine moiety occupies the glycerol substitution site. It has a molecular formula of C40 H76 NO10 P. Phospholipases are the enzyme that hydrolyzes the phospholipids into the fatty acids and other lipophilic substances.
(c)
To explain: The products obtained when 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-3-phosphatidylserine is hydrolyzed by phospholipase D.
Concept introduction: 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-3-phosphatidylserine is a glycerophospholipid in which the phosphorylserine moiety occupies the glycerol substitution site. It has a molecular formula of C40 H76 NO10 P. Phospholipases are the enzyme that hydrolyzes the phospholipids into the fatty acids and other lipophilic substances.
