Experiments on the biosynthesis and physiology of the cyclo-galactolipids in \(\textit {Arabidopsis thaliana}\) (L.) Heynh.
Untersuchungen zur Biosynthese und Physiologie der cyclo-Galactolipide in \(\textit {Arabidopsis thaliana}\) (L.) Heynh.
- Cyclo-galactolipids (cGLs) are a novel class of plastid-specific glycerolipids that include cyclopentenone oxylipins derived from free fatty acids in there structures. Oxylipins are known as signal transducers which have regulatory functions in diverse developmental and defence processes in plants. On the other hand, the essential role of the galactolipids for the maintenance of the photosynthetic processes is well known. Therefore, cGLs may be signals of novel regulatory function(s) associated with photosynthesis. The elucidation of cGLs-formation and investigation of their metabolism in \(\textit {Arabidopsis thaliana}\) - plant species with the highest occurrence of cGLs - were the main subjects of the presented study. It was established (by the example of the most abundant member of this family) that 1. biosynthesis of cGLs occurs by direct pathway in chloroplast membranes and 2. oxylipins play an important role in the regulation of primary energy metabolism in plants.
