Studies on lankacidin-group (T-2636) ANTIBIOTICS. IX Preparation of C-labeled lankacidin C 14-propionate.
J Antibiot (Tokyo)
January 1975
To investigate the metabolic fate of lankacidin C 14-propionate in experimental animals, the 14-C-labeled antibiotic was prepared by the fermentation of Streptomyces rochei var, volubilis in the presence of various 14-C-labeled organic carboxylic acids, amino acids and carbohydrates. Significant incorporation (20 similar to 40%) was observed with L-methionine-methyl-14-C. Lankacidin C 14-propionate-14-C (specific activity 49.

The levels and types of phospholipids changed in distinct phases during the germination of (32)P-labeled uredospores of Uromyces phaseoli. During the first 20 minutes of germination, the phospholipid content dropped to 40% of the pregermination level. Between 2 and 3 hours, phospholipid levels increased to approximately 80% of the pregermination levels, and after germination for 5 hours, catabolism had reduced the (32)P-lipids to about the same level observed prior to the first anabolic phase.

Department of Biology, State University of New York, Buffalo, New York 14214.
The metabolism of myo-inositol-2-(14)C, d-glucuronate-1-(14)C, d-glucuronate-6-(14)C, and l-methionine-methyl-(14)C to cell wall polysaccharides was investigated in excised root-tips of 3 day old Zea mays seedlings. From myo-inositol, about one-half of incorporated label was recovered in ethanol insoluble residues. Of this label, about 90% was solubilized by treatment, first with a preparation of pectinase-EDTA, then with dilute hydrochloric acid.

The results summarized below favor the view (a) that exchange of saturated fatty acids plays a role in the formation of lecithins; (b) that the unsaturated fatty acids do not undergo significant exchange and determine the pathway of biosynthesis of lecithins; and (c) that there is either more than one pool of CDP-choline in liver or a pathway of biosynthesis of lecithin from choline not involving CDP-choline as an intermediate. Linoleoyl lecithin of liver attained higher specific activity with respect to phosphate-(32)P and choline-methyl-(3)H than did arachidonoyl lecithin.
