FIGURE 5.
Effects of the PAP gene mutations on DAG, TAG, and total phospholipids. The indicated cells were grown to the stationary phase of growth in the presence of [2-14C]acetate (1 μCi/ml). Lipids were extracted and separated by one-dimensional TLC, and the images were subjected to ImageQuant analysis. The percentages shown for the individual lipids were normalized to the total 14C-labeled chloroform-soluble fraction, which also contained sterols, fatty acids, and unidentified neutral lipids. Each data point represents the average of three experiments ± S.D. (error bars). PL, phospholipids.
