Abstract
Phospholipase D (PLD) hydrolyses phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho) to produce free choline and the critically important lipid signaling molecule phosphatidic acid (PtdOH). Since the initial discovery of PLD activities in plants and bacteria, PLDs have been identified in a diverse range of organisms spanning the taxa. While widespread interest in these proteins grew following the discovery of mammalian isoforms, research into the PLDs of non-mammalian organisms has revealed a fascinating array of functions ranging from roles in microbial pathogenesis, to the stress responses of plants and the developmental patterning of flies. Furthermore, studies in non-mammalian model systems have aided our understanding of the entire PLD superfamily, with translational relevance to human biology and health. Increasingly, the promise for utilization of non-mammalian PLDs in biotechnology is also being recognized, with widespread potential applications ranging from roles in lipid synthesis, to their exploitation for agricultural and pharmaceutical applications.

Abstract
The growth of microorganisms is affected by cultivation conditions, concentration of carbon and nitrogen sources and the presence of trace elements. One of the new possibilities of influencing the production of cell mass or lipids is the use of lanthanides. Lanthanides are biologically non-essential elements with wide applications in technology and industry and their concentration as environmental contaminants is therefore increasing. Although non-essential, lanthanides have been proposed (and even used) to produce beneficial effects in plants but their mechanisms of action are unclear. Recently, it was suggested that they may replace essential elements or operate as potent blockers of Ca(2+) channels. We tested the effect of low concentrations of lanthanides on traditional biotechnologically useful yeast species (Kluyveromyces polysporus, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Torulospora delbrueckii), and species capable of high accumulation of lipids (Rhodotorula glutinis, Trichosporon cutaneum, Candida sp., Yarrowia lipolytica). Low concentrations of lanthanum and monazite were conducive to an increase in cell mass and lipids and also higher production of palmitoleic acid, commonly used in cosmetics and medicine, and ω6-linoleic acid which is a precursor of thromboxanes, prostaglandins and leucotrienes.

Abstract
Phospholipase D is a ubiquitous protein in eukaryotes that hydrolyzes phospholipids to generate the signaling lipid phosphatidic acid (PtdOH). PldA, a Pseudomonas aeruginosa PLD, is a secreted protein that targets bacterial and eukaryotic cells. Here we have characterized the in vitro factors that modulate enzymatic activity of PldA, including divalent cations and phosphoinositides. We have identified several similarities between the eukaryotic-like PldA and the human PLD isoforms, as well as several properties in which the enzymes diverge. Notable differences include the substrate preference and transphosphatidylation efficiency for PldA. These findings offer new insights into potential regulatory mechanisms of PldA and its role in pathogenesis.

Abstract
We constructed a yeast stain, TKY12Ga, in which phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) synthesis can be controlled by means of the carbon source in the medium. When PE synthesis was blocked, its growth was inhibited. However, in the presence of exogenous didecanoyl PE (diC10PE), TKY12Ga grew despite an inability to synthesize PE. Our system, which employs TKY12Ga strain and diC10PE, provides a valuable tool to study the transport and metabolism of PE in yeast.

Abstract
Sulphur and nitrogen catabolic repressions are regulations that have long been recognized in fungi, but whose molecular bases remain largely elusive. This paper shows that catabolic repression of a protease-encoding gene correlates with the modulation of a phosphatidylethanolamine (PE)-specific phospholipase D (PLD) activity in the pathogenic fungus Botrytis cinerea. Our results first demonstrate that the ACP1 gene is subject to sulphur catabolic repression, with sulphate and cysteine inhibiting its expression. Sulphate and cysteine also cause a decrease of the total cellular PLD activity and, reciprocally, the two PLD inhibitors AEBSF [4-(2-aminoethyl)benzenesulphonyl fluoride] and curcumin negatively affect ACP1 expression in vivo. Cysteine moreover inhibits the PE-specific PLD activity in cell extracts. ACP1 is regulated by nitrogen, but here we show that this regulation does not rely on the proximal AREA binding site in its promoter, and that glutamine does not play a particular role in the process. A decrease in the total cellular PLD activity is also observed when the cells are fed ammonia, but this effect is smaller than that produced by sulphur. RNA-interference experiments finally suggest that the enzyme responsible for the PE-specific PLD activity is encoded by a gene that does not belong to the known HKD gene family of PLDs.

Abstract
In the yeast, three biosynthetic pathways lead to the formation of phosphatidylethanolamine (PtdEtn): (i) decarboxylation of phosphatidylserine (PtdSer) by phosphatidylserine decarboxylase 1 (Psd1p) in mitochondria; (ii) decarboxylation of PtdSer by Psd2p in a Golgi/vacuolar compartment; and (iii) the CDP-ethanolamine (CDP-Etn) branch of the Kennedy pathway. The major phospholipid of the yeast, phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho), is formed either by methylation of PtdEtn or via the CDP-choline branch of the Kennedy pathway. To study the contribution of these pathways to the supply of PtdEtn and PtdCho to mitochondrial membranes, labeling experiments in vivo with [(3)H]serine and [(14)C]ethanolamine, or with [(3)H]serine and [(14)C]choline, respectively, and subsequent cell fractionation were performed with psd1Delta and psd2Delta mutants. As shown by comparison of the labeling patterns of the different strains, the major source of cellular and mitochondrial PtdEtn is Psd1p. PtdEtn formed by Psd2p or the CDP-Etn pathway, however, can be imported into mitochondria, although with moderate efficiency. In contrast to mitochondria, microsomal PtdEtn is mainly derived from the CDP-Etn pathway. PtdEtn formed by Psd2p is the preferred substrate for PtdCho synthesis. PtdCho derived from the different pathways appears to be supplied to subcellular membranes from a single PtdCho pool. Thus, the different pathways of PtdEtn biosynthesis play different roles in the assembly of PtdEtn into cellular membranes.

Abstract
Sec14p of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is involved in protein secretion and regulation of lipid synthesis and turnover in vivo, but acts as a phosphatidylinositol-phosphatidylcholine transfer protein in vitro. In this work, the five homologues of Sec14p, Sfh1p-Sfh5p, were subjected to biochemical and cell biological analysis to get a better view of their physiological role. We show that overexpression of SFH2 and SFH4 suppressed the sec14 growth defect in a more and SFH1 in a less efficient way, whereas overexpression of SFH3 and SFH5 did not complement sec14. Using C-terminal yEGFP fusions, Sfh2p, Sfh4p and Sfh5p are mainly localized to the cytosol and microsomes similar to Sec14p. Sfh1p was detected in the nucleus and Sfh3p in lipid particles and in microsomes. In contrast to Sec14p, which inhibits phospholipase D1 (Pld1p), overproduction of Sfh2p and Sfh4p resulted in the activation of Pld1p-mediated phosphatidylcholine turnover. Interestingly, Sec14p and the two homologues Sfh2p and Sfh4p downregulate phospholipase B1 (Plb1p)-mediated turnover of phosphatidylcholine in vivo. In summary, Sfh2p and Sfh4p are the Sec14p homologues with the most pronounced functional similarity to Sec14p, whereas the other Sfh proteins appear to be functionally less related to Sec14p.

Abstract
We cloned a gene pldA encoding a protein containing phospholipase D (PLD) motifs from a filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans. The deduced protein product of pldA consists of 833 amino acids and contains four conserved regions of a PLD gene family. Deletion mutants of pldA grew and formed conidia in a normal manner. Although PLD and transphosphatidylation activities against phosphatidylcholine of the mutant cell extract did not change, the Ca(2+)-dependent PLD activity against phosphatidylethanolamine was significantly reduced, but not in the wild-type cell extract. This activity was markedly enhanced by high osmotic growth conditions in the wild-type cells, and pldA of A. nidulans likely encodes a Ca(2+)-dependent phosphatidylethanolamine-hydrolyzing PLD.
