Abstract excerpt
Phosphatidylserine (PS) in mammalian cells is synthesized through the exchange of free L-serine with the base moiety of phosphatidylcholine or phosphatidylethanolamine (PE). The serine base exchange in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells is catalyzed by at least two enzymes, PS synthase (PSS) I and II. A PSS I-lacking mutant of CHO-K1 cells, PSA-3, which exhibits approximately 2-fold lower serine base exchange...
