Abstract

1. 1. The effect of membrane phospholipid composition and fluidity on tyrosine kinase activity was investigated in rat liver plasma membranes. 2. 2. The phospholipid composition has been modified by in vitro enrichment of plasma membranes with different phospholipids in the presence of lipid transfer proteins and by partial delipidation with exogenous phospholipases A2, C and D and subsequent enrichment with phosphatidylglycerol. 3. 3. Phosphadidylglycerol and dioleoylglycerophosphocholine caused dramatic elevation of this activity, while phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylethanolamine were less effective. Enrichment with dipalmitoylglycerophosphocholine and sphingomyeline reduced tyrosine kinase activity.
