  • Title: 31P NMR of phospholipid glycerol phosphodiester residues.
    Author: Merchant TE, Glonek T.
    Journal: J Lipid Res; 1990 Mar; 31(3):479-86. PubMed ID: 2341809.
    Abstract:
    Saponification of extracted tissue phospholipids yields a set of isolated glycerol 3-phosphoryl phospholipid polar headgroups from which semi-quantitative 31P NMR spectra can be obtained. The resonance signals from these molecules, which frequently have been reported as uncharacterized phosphate signals observed in perchloric acid extracts of tissue, can be used as an aid in the characterization of isolated phospholipids and of tissue phospholipid 31P NMR profiles. 31P NMR chemical-shift values of the resonances at pH 7 in water and relative to 85% phosphoric acid are: glycerol 3-phosphocholine (-0.13 delta), glycerol 3-phosphoethanolamine (0.42 delta), glycerol 3-phospho(monomethyl)ethanolamine (0.29 delta), glycerol 3-phospho(dimethyl)ethanolamine (0.16 delta), glycerol 3-phosphoserine (0.14 delta), glycerol 3-phosphoinositol (-0.07 delta), glycerol 3-phosphoglycerol (0.92 delta), bis(glycerol 3-phospho)glycerol (0.79 delta), serine ethanolamine phosphodiester (-0.46 delta), glycerol 3-phosphate (0.60 delta; 4.29 delta at pH 10) glycerol 2-phosphate (0.15 delta; 3.92 delta at pH 10). In addition, analysis of extracted cancer tissue phospholipid samples yielded a new and uncharacterized polar headgroup fragment with a chemical-shift value of 0.29 delta that is independent of sample pH.
