Lipid Signaling Enzymes and Surface Dilution Kinetics

Year: 1995

Type: review

Abstract: In recent years, considerable effort has been devoted to defining lipid signaling pathways, purification of the involved enzymes, and cloning of the genes encoding for these enzymes. However, much less is known about the mechanism, specificity of reaction, and the regulation of the catalytic activity of lipid-dependent enzymes and enzymes involved in generating lipid second messengers. The enzymes in lipid signaling pathways include lipid biosynthetic enzymes, lipid degrading enzymes, and enzymes that utilize lipid activators (cofactors).
