A plant lipid and the platelet-activating factor stimulate ATP-dependent H + transport in isolated plant membrane vesicles

A plant lipid was isolated from zucchini (Cucurbita pepo L.) membranes and from soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr) phospholipids by thin-layer chromatography and further purified by high-performance liquid chromatography. This plant lipid was chromatographically very similar to the platelet-activating...

Zusammenfassung:A plant lipid was isolated from zucchini (Cucurbita pepo L.) membranes and from soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr) phospholipids by thin-layer chromatography and further purified by high-performance liquid chromatography. This plant lipid was chromatographically very similar to the platelet-activating factor, an ether phospholipid with hormone-like properties, found in mammals. Both the plant lipid and the platelet-activating factor stimulated ATP-dependent H+ transport in isolated membrane vesicles from zucchini hypocotyls.
