The effect of glucose and calcium on the activities of the phosphatidylinositol cycle enzymes, CDP-diglyceride inositol transferase, diacylglycerokinase, and lysophosphatidylcholine 2-acyltransferase in rat pancreatic islets was studied. Calcium inhibited the activity of CDP-diglyceride inositol tra

In rat pancreatic islets, a rise in extracellular D-glucose concentration is known to cause a greater increase in the oxidation of D-[6-14C]glucose than utilization of D-[5-3H]glucose. In the present study, such a preferential stimulation of acetyl residue oxidation relative to glycolytic flux was m
Glucose-6-phosphatase activity was measured in rat liver or pancreatic islet crude homogenates and microsomes. The data recorded in the liver were comparable to those reported in prior studies. However, in the islets, the hydrolysis of D-glucose 6-phosphate by disrupted microsomes represented, when
