heal.abstract | Our study provides evidence for the existence of an acylhydrolase activity in Tetrahymena pyriformis cells, capable of hydrolizing the sn-2 ester bond of the PAF molecule. This activity is mainly distributed in the microsomal fraction (76.5% of total) and has properties similar to the mammalian PAF-acetylhydrolase since it is Ca2+-independent, acid-labile, is inhibited by DFP and PMSF but it is not affected by egg yolk phosphatidylcholine. This microsomal acylhydrolase has apparent K(m) and V(max) values of 1.56-mu-M and 373 pmols . mg . min respectively. This is the first report of the existence of a PAF-acetylhydrolase activity in a non-mammalian cell. | en |
