摘要
Chloroplasts isolated from pea and lettuce leaves were found to synthesize sulphoquinovosyldiacylglycerol from [S-35]sulphate. Optimal conditions were defined for this synthesis. Rates of up to 1.3 and 0.8 nmol mg chlorophyll(-1) hr(-1) (at pH 7.9) were obtained for pea and lettuce chloroplasts, respectively. Synthesis by intact chloroplasts was stimulated by UTP (uridine triphosphate) and was light-dependent. The rates of synthesis achieved in vitro were sufficient to show that the chloroplast is autonomous with respect to synthesis of sulpholipid. The ready availability of pea leaves and the ease of isolation and activity of their chloroplasts make such preparations very suitable for detailed studies of sulpholipid synthesis.
