Contents of phospholipids and glycolipids and their fatty acid compositions in the CmGPAT1 overexpression strain. (a) Lipid contents in GPc and GP1 cells. Values of indicated lipids are averages of four independent experiments and represent percentages of dry weight. Error bars indicate SD. Other details are the same as in Fig. 3c. (b,c) Fatty acid composition of the purified PC (b) and PE (c) in GPc and GP1 cells. Other details are the same as in Fig. 3c. (d) Positional distribution of fatty acids in the TAGs. TAGs from GPc and GP1 were purified and subjected to the lipase reaction. After isolation, the released fatty acids were quantified. Other details are the same as in Fig. 3c.
