Colneleic acid (9-[1'(E),3'(Z)-nonadienyloxy]-8(E)-nonenoic acid) is produced from linoleic acid by the sequential action of 9-lipoxygenase and divinyl ether synthase. We demonstrate that a small fraction of the colneleic acid in potato tubers is esterified in phospholipids. This colneleic acid was released by chemical hydrolysis and a phospholipase A(2), but not by a lipase with 1-acyl specificity. Phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidylinositol contain molecular species with nominal masses consistent with identification as palmitoyl,colneleoyl species. Exact mass analysis of its fragments confirmed the identity of palmitoyl,colneloyl phosphatidylinositol. To our knowledge, this work represents the first identification of a colneleoyl phospholipid.

The present work reports the detection and cloning of a new CYP74 clan gene of the European lancelet (Branchiostoma lanceolatum) and the biochemical characterization of the recombinant protein CYP440A19. CYP440A19 possessed epoxyalcohol synthase (EAS) activity towards the 13-hydroperoxides of linoleic and α-linolenic acids, which were converted into oxiranylcarbinols, i.e.

The role of the 9-lipoxygenase (9-LOX)-derived oxylipins in plant defense is mainly known in solanaceous plants. In this work, we identify the functional role of the tomato divinyl ether synthase (LeDES) branch, which exclusively converts 9-hydroperoxides to the 9-divinyl ethers (DVEs) colneleic acid (CA) and colnelenic acid (CnA), during infection by the root-knot nematode . Analysis of expression in roots indicated a concurrent response to nematode infection, demonstrating a sharp increase in expression during the molting of third/fourth-stage juveniles, 15 days after inoculation.

Potato and tobacco cells are differentially suited to study oxylipin pathway and elicitor-induced responses. Synthesis of oxylipins via the lipoxygenase (LOX) pathway provides plant cells with an important class of signaling molecules, related to plant stress responses and innate immunity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the induction of LOX pathway in tobacco and potato cells induced by a concentrated culture filtrate (CCF) from Phytophthora infestans and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from Pectobacterium atrosepticum.

Incubations of linoleic acid with cell-free preparations from Lily-of-the-Valley (Convallaria majalis L., Ruscaceae) roots revealed the presence of 13-lipoxygenase and divinyl ether synthase (DES) activities. Exogenous linoleic acid was metabolized predominantly into (9Z,11E,1'E)-12-(1'-hexenyloxy)-9,11-dodecadienoic (etheroleic) acid.
