Wheat seedlings were grown hydroponically in the presence of 50 microM Cu2+. The copper stress resulted in plasma-membrane (PM) changes of the root cells as altered lipid composition, a decreased phosphatidylcholine (PC)/phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) ratio from 0.7 to 0.3, a decreased fatty acyl unsaturation and a decrease in the lipid/protein ratio. Membrane vesicles made from total lipid extracts of isolated PMs of wheat grown under copper excess showed a remarkably low permeability to polar molecules like glucose, as compared with the control, and no difference in proton permeability. Permeability studies of vesicles of plasma-membrane lipids, which were selectively modified by addition of specific lipids such as PC and PE, were also performed. The results are discussed with emphasis on the role of the increased PE proportion.
