Other unsaturated fatty acids also failed to stimulate Ppt1p activity with this substrate (Table 1).
This is especially true for the unsaturated fatty acid content of brine shrimp nauplii, Artemia.
These results are reminiscent of similar studies done in other PP5 enzymes in which mutational inactivation of the TPR domain resulted in an elevated basal activity and concomitant reduced response to unsaturated fatty acids [ 19 ] . Such studies led to the proposal that TPR domains regulate the PP5 catalytic region in a negative manner and that the interaction of arachidonic acid with TPR relieves this auto-inhibition.
It has been proposed that vitamin E may incorporate into cellular membranes by association of the tocopherol side chain with the polyenoic fatty acid residues in the membrane fatty acids [ 15 19 ] . This interaction may stabilize cell membranes by making highly unsaturated fatty acids less liable to peroxidation as well as by making highly unsaturated fatty acids less available for phospholipid hydrolysis by phospholipase [ 15 16 ] . The latter action may reduce mobilization of arachidonic acid (AA) from the membranes and in this way reduce the amount of AA available as a substrate to cyclooxygenase and/or lipoxygenase to produce eicosanoids with mitogenic and with inflammatory properties [ 17 20 ] . Other possible antitumor actions include: induction of apoptosis, interference with hormone production, modulation of cellular signaling and gene transcription, and induction of differentiation [ 4 21 22 23 24 ] .
Neither animal fat, total fat, nor unsaturated fat was associated with increased risk on nutrient analysis; however, another nutrient in butter might confer increased risk, or the consumption of butter might be a proxy for another risk factor.
