Metabolism of triacylglycerol in Mycobacterium smegmatis. Abstract Text:

H Nakagawa,Y Kashiwabara,G Matsuki,

Mycobacterium smegmatis cells incorporated [1-14C]oleic acid into triacylglycerols (TG) from the medium more rapidly than shorter chain fatty acids, caprilic and butyric acids. This incorporation was inhibited more strongly by 10(-3) M N-ethylmaleimide than by 10(-3) M KCN. [14C]TG in the bacterial cells was utilized when the cells were in poor nutritional conditions, such as phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) containing oleic acid. Accumulation of TG was observed in the cells at late stages of growth. Diglyceride acyltransferase [EC 2.3.1.20] activity was detected in a cell-free extract from this bacterium. The pH optimum of this enzyme was between pH 7 and 9. F- and Tween 20 showed remarkable enhancing and inhibitory effects, respectively.
