title: [Lipid regulation of carbohydrate transport system in Mycoplasma].
abstract: Cultivation of Acholeplasma laidlawii cells in media containing unsaturated fatty acids results in changes of the physiological state of the membrane lipid bilayer due to preferable incorporation of an unsaturated fatty acid into lipids. The lipids are capable to regulate the transport activity since the transport rates for glucose, 3-O-methyl-C-glucose, glucerol and erythritol change considerably when the cells are cultivated in media containing different unsaturated fatty acids. The transport activity is also affected by the length of the carbon chain, the degree of the fatty acid saturation and the presence of cholesterol. At the same time the activation energy of the transport activity also changes, which suggests that the regulation by lipids (presumably local changes of the physical properties of lipid domen) is involved in the process of the carrier association with the substrate and/or in translocation of this complex through the membrane.
