Expression of a rat liver phosphatidylcholine translocator in Xenopus laevis oocytes.

Hepatology 23(5) , 1254-9, (1996)

A phospholipid translocating protein from rat liver has been expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes. Injection of oocytes with total rat liver messenger RNA (mRNA) resulted in the function expression of saturable uptake of the water soluble phophatidylcholine de...

Assembly of the endoplasmic reticulum phospholipid bilayer: the phosphatidylcholine transporter.

Cell 42(1) , 51-60, (1985)

Phospholipids are synthesized and concomitantly inserted on the cytoplasmic surface of the endoplasmic reticulum. Assembly of the phospholipid bilayer requires translocation to the lumenal monolayer. The hypothesis that rat liver microsomes contain a protein ...

Evidence for the presence of a phosphatidylcholine translocator in isolated rat liver canalicular plasma membrane vesicles.

J. Biol. Chem. 268(6) , 3976-9, (1993)

In the present study we used the water-soluble short chain phosphatidylcholine analogue L-alpha-dibutyryl-glycero-3-phosphatidylcholine (diC4PC) to investigate the mechanism involved in the canalicular secretion of phospholipids in rat liver. Uptake of 14C-la...

Role of monomeric activators in cobra venom phospholipase A2 action.

Biochemistry 21(8) , 1750-6, (1982)

Phospholipase A2 from cobra venom (Naja naja naja), which acts poorly on phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) in mixed micelles, is activated toward PE by the monomeric phospholipid dibutyrylphosphatidylcholine (dibutyryl-PC) which is an, even poorer substrate. Phos...

Reconstitution and partial characterization of phospholipid flippase activity from detergent extracts of the Bacillus subtilis cell membrane.

J. Bacteriol. 182(15) , 4198-206, (2000)

In bacteria, phospholipids are synthesized on the inner leaflet of the cytoplasmic membrane and must translocate to the outer leaflet to propagate a bilayer. Transbilayer movement of phospholipids has been shown to be fast and independent of metabolic energy,...
