The compartmentation of the phosphatidylethanolamine newly synthesized in brain microsomes in vitro either by base exchange or net synthesis has been studied, using difluorodinitrobenzene as a chemical probe. The experimental results demonstrate that in rat brain microsomes the phosphatidylethanolamine molecules synthesized by base exchange and the bulk membrane lipid belong to different pools. Ca2+ bound to microsomes seems to be involved in the maintenance of the compartmentation of phosphatidylethanolamine. In the presence of Ca2+ the newly synthesized phosphatidylethanolamine molecules react with difluorodinitrobenzene as though they are organized in clusters. After biosynthesis in vivo or in vitro through the cytidine pathway, the compartmentation of the newly formed phosphatidylethanolamine appears less marked than after the synthesis through base exchange.
