✦ Synopsis


In the free-swimming cypris larva of Balanus balanoides, the mean level of triacylglycerols (triglycerides) was 8% of the ash-free dry weight. During metamorphosis into the juvenile barnacle, the triacylglycero! level in the newly settled non-feeding cypris larva fell to a mean of 2% of the ash-free dry weight. The ratio of fatty acids in the triacylglycerols remained constant throughout metamorphosis, indicating that all species of fatty acids were used as energy sources. There. was no evidence for the selective utilisation of particular fatty acids.

The microsomal phosphatidate phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.4) in maturing seeds of safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) was specific and selective for unsaturated phosphatidates. The relative order of specificity for phosphatidate molecular species was 1 The order of selectivity was similar to that of the s
