Changes in Kennedy pathway intermediates associated with increased triacylglycerol synthesis in oil-seed rape
TL;DR: The rates of triacylglycerol synthesis in maturing oil-seed rape (Brassica napus cv Shiralee) were manipulated by light/dark treatments and the amounts of the Kennedy pathway intermediates, phosphatidate and particularly, diacyl glycerol were increased significantly.
Journal ArticleDOI
Changes in the lipid content of developing seeds of Brassica napus
Hilary J. Perry,John L. Harwood +1 more
TL;DR: Changes in the acyl lipid composition of maturing embryos of oilseed rape (Brassica napus cv Shiralee) were quantified in plants cultivated in grow.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radiolabelling studies of acyl lipids in developing seeds of Brassica napus: Use of [1-14C]acetate precursor
Hilary J. Perry,John L. Harwood +1 more
TL;DR: The distribution of labelling within the fatty acids of individual lipid classes was studied and the results showed that the PLs contained significantly more palmitate and significantly lessoleate than the TAGs for embryos at all stages of development.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comparison of lipase activity in various cereal grains
TL;DR: Direct and indirect evidence for a contribution of microbial contamination to total wheat lipase activity is obtained and neither wheat nor oat lipase showed any obvious substrate specificity, although the reduced yield of polyunsaturated fatty acids liberated by the oat Lipase showed evidence of oxidative reactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of [2-3H]glycerol precursor in radiolabelling studies of acyl lipids in developing seeds of Brassica napus☆
Hilary J. Perry,John L. Harwood +1 more
TL;DR: Changes in the relative labelling of triacylglycerols (TAGs) and DAGs in embryos of different ages suggested that diacyl glycerol acyltransferase (DAGAT) could exert significant flux control during periods of rapid lipid synthesis.
