Lipid biosynthesis in Paramphistomum microbothrium (Trematoda).
Copyright policy )Lipid biosynthesis in Paramphistomum microbothrium (Trematoda).
In vitro studies with Paramphistomum microbothrium indicated that the trematode is capable of synthesizing its complex lipids using exogenous substrates. U-14C glucose and 2-14C acetate were predominantly incorporated into phospholipids while 1-14C oleic acid and U-14C palmitic acid appeared more in the neutral lipids. A large proportion of the labelled acetic acid incorporated into neutral lipids appeared in the triglycerides. P. microbothrium is capable of synthesizing its cholesterol de novo.
