Two polygalactolipids, designated as components A and B, were isolated from spinach chloroplasts and were also obtained from glycolipid products synthesized with chloroplast enzymes using uridine diphosphate galactose as a galactose donor. These lipids were purified by column and thin layer
The pH optimum for galactolipid synthesis from UDP-galactose by spinach chloroplasts is 7.2 in Tris-HCl or phosphate buffer. The products include sterol glycosides, trigalactosyl diglyceride (tentatively identified), digalactosyl diglyceride, and monogalactosyl diglyceride in increasing order of
Trigalactosyl diglyceride was isolated from leaves of Urtica dioica and characterized by thin layer chromatography, infrared spectroscopy and by its fatty acid composition. An antiserum to the trigalactolipid was obtained by immunization of rabbits. By means of inhibition experiments with
The metabolism of uridine 5'-pyrophosphate-galactose by spinach (Spinacia oleracea) chloroplast preparations was inhibited by ozone. The formation of digalactosyl diglyceride and trigalactosyl diglyceride was inhibited much more than the formation of monogalactosyl diglyceride, steryl glycoside, and
