The phospholipids of cilia and deciliated bodies of P. tetraurelia were isolated and characterized. 1-Alkyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-(2''-aminoethyl) phosphonate (GAEPL), phosphatidylethanolamine and 1-alkyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylcholine (GPC) were the major lipids and the minor lipids included phosphatidylinositol, cardiolipin, ceramide-(2-aminoethyl) phosphonate (CAEP), ceramide phosphorylethanolamine (COPE) and 4 unidentified sphinogolipids. The deciliated bodies contained 4% cardiolipin, 15% GAEPL, 41% phosphatidylethanolamine, 30% GPC and 3% each of CAEP and phosphatidylinositol; the cilia contained no cardiolipin, 24% GAEPL, 37% phosphatidylethanolamine, 15% GPC, 15% CAEP, 3% phosphatidylinositol, 2% COPE and small amounts (approximately 1%) of the 4 uncharacterized sphingolipids. No alteration in phospholipid composition was found among cells harvested in the various stages of growth. The phospholipids of 6 Paramecium mutants of 3 distinct phenotypes (pawn, paranoiac and fast) were also examined. Only one significant difference was found on comparison of the whole cell, deciliated body and cilia fraction of the mutants with the analogous fractions from wild type cells: the fast mutant, fA 97, had 2 extra, minor phospholipids (approximately 2%) in the deciliated body fraction that were tentatively identified as 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycero-3-(2''-aminoethyl) phosphonate (AEPL) and 1-alkyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylethanolamine (GPE).
