Abstract

Y185, grown anaerobically in media containing ergosterol and palmitoleic, oleic or linoleic acids, synthesized phospholipids extensively enriched in the exogenously supplied fatty acid. A study was made of the effect of solute concentration on rates of accumulation of nine amino acids by organisms enriched in different fatty-acyl residues. Data were fitted using computer-aided statistical analysis to three equations to derive kinetic constants for accumulation. Analysis of data for two of the amino acids, namely -threonine and -histidine, showed different kinetics in organisms enriched in different fatty-acyl residues. Woolf-Hofstee plots for accumulation of -threonine, as well as -serine, showed abrupt changes in curvature at low concentrations with differently enriched organisms. Data for accumulation of both amino acids gave a significant fit to the model describing accumulation by one transport system without diffusion. Data for accumulation of -histidine as well as -aspartic acid best fitted a model describing accumulation by one transport system and diffusion. Values for and the diffusion constant, but not , differed only for accumulation of L-histidine in organisms with different fatty-acyl enrichments. A third model, describing accumulation by two separable transport systems, best fitted data for accumulation of -glutamic acid and L-methionine. Data for accumulation of -leucine, -isoleucine and -valine could not be fitted to any of the models. Woolf-Hofstee plots for accumulation of -leucine and -isoleucine by organisms enriched in oleyl or linoleyl residues were superimposable, although similar plots for accumulation of -valine differed in shape.
