Abstract

The biosynthesis of glycerides from glycerolphosphate and palmitate, catalysed by mitochondrial and microsomal fractions, is greatly stimulated by the supernatant fraction (6,000,000×g-min). This is caused by the presence of a specific phosphatidate phosphohydrolase, unsaturated long-chain fatty acids and unspecific protein(s) in the supernatant fraction.
