Abstract

S>Results are reported from tracer studies of lecithin formation by methylation of intact phosphatidyl dimethylethanolamine (DME). After incubation of C/sup 14/ labeled DME with rat liver slices, the isotope was found to be present in the DME as well as in the choline moiety of the phospholipids. Results are tabulated from typical experiments. Possible reaction mechanisms involved are discussed. (C.H.)
