Evidence is presented for the enzymatic formation of cytidine diphosphate diglyceride in microsomal preparations from guinea pig liver according to the reaction:
CTP + phosphatidic acid
CDP-diglyceride + pOP.
Conditions have been found in which the incorporation of labeled CTP into CDP-diglyceride is almost entirely dependent upon added phosphatidic acid. The incorporation of CMP into lipid is very slight. A substantial net synthesis of CDP-diglyceride takes place under these conditions. Some properties of the enzyme system are described.
Supplementary key words cytidine nucleotide CDP-diglyceride enzymatic biosynthesis phosphatidic acid microsomes guinea pig liver dependence physicochemical dispersion state
