Colipase is a key element in the lipase-catalyzed hydrolysis of dietary lipids. Although devoid of enzymatic activity, colipase promotes the pancreatic lipase activity in physiological intestinal conditions by anchoring the enzyme at the surface of lipid droplets. Analysis of structures of NMR colipase models and simulations of their interactions with various lipid aggregates, lipid droplet, and bile salt micelle, were carried out to determine and to map the lipid binding sites on colipase. We show that the micelle and the oil droplet bind to the same side of colipase 3D structure, mainly the hydrophobic fingers. Moreover, it appears that, although colipase has a single direction of interaction with a lipid interface, it does not bind in a specific way but rather oscillates between different positions. Indeed, different NMR models of colipase insert different fragments of sequence in the interface, either simultaneously or independently. This supports the idea that colipase finger plasticity may be crucial to adapt the lipase activity to different lipid aggregates. 相似文献

Two types of experiments were performed to study the reversibility of interfacial adsorption of pancreatic lipase (PL) to fat droplets during lipolysis. Lipolysis was measured in olive oil/gum arabic emulsions containing radiolabeled triolein in the presence of bile salts and lecithin at rate-limiting concentrations of porcine PL (PPL) or human PL (HPL). The lipolysis rate in a labeled emulsion, i.e. release of [(14)C]oleic acid, was immediately reduced by around 50% upon dilution with an equal amount of an unlabeled emulsion. Further, lipolysis was rapidly and completely suppressed when a non-exchanging lipase inhibitor was present in the second emulsion. These results indicate hopping of lipase between emulsion droplets. Alternative explanations were excluded. Hopping of PL between triolein droplets stabilized with gum arabic at supramicellar bile salt concentrations was observed only in the presence, not in the absence, of lecithin. Displacement from a trioctanoin-water interface of active HPL by an inactive mutant (S152G) was studied in the presence of bile salts by measuring HPL distribution between the water phase and the oil-water interface. Colipase was limiting for HPL binding to the oil-water interface (colipase to lipase molar ratio: 0.5) and, thus, for lipolysis. Upon adding S152G, which has the same affinity for colipase, inactive and active HPL were found to compete for binding at the oil-water interface. When equal amounts of HPL and HPL S152G were used, the lipolysis rate dropped to half the maximum rate recorded with HPL alone, suggesting that half the active HPL was rapidly desorbed from the oil-water interface. Therefore, under various conditions, PL does not remain irreversibly adsorbed to the oil-water interface, but can exchange rapidly between oil droplets, via an equilibrium between soluble and lipid-bound PL. 相似文献

The open lid mediates pancreatic lipase function 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Pancreatic triglyceride lipase (PTL) and the homologous pancreatic lipase related protein 2 (PLRP2) provide a unique opportunity to understand the molecular mechanism of lipolysis. They differ in substrate specificity, sensitivity to bile salts, and colipase dependence despite their close amino acid and tertiary structure identity. One important structure, present in both lipases, is the lid which occupies different positions in the inactive and active forms of PTL. We investigated the role of the lid in lipase function by site-specific mutagenesis. By exchanging the lids between PTL and PLRP2, we created two chimeric lipases. Additionally, we made multiple substitution mutations in the PTL lid. PLRP2 with the PTL lid had kinetic properties similar to PLRP2. PTL with the PLRP2 lid was greatly impaired and had no activity at micellar bile salt concentrations even in the presence of colipase. Both chimeras showed interfacial activation suggesting that the closed lid position was maintained. A series of substitution mutations were made in positions Arg257 and Asp258. These mutations demonstrated the importance of these two residues to maintaining the normal activity, triglyceride acyl chain specificity, and colipase interaction of PTL. The preserved interfacial activation in the chimeras, the similar crystal structure of the two lids in the closed position, and the importance of Arg257 and Asp258 in mediating the open conformation of the lid argue that the position of the open lid influences the differences in activity against triglycerides, in sensitivity to bile salts, and in colipase dependence between PTL and PLRP2. 相似文献

Five key amino acid residues from human pancreatic lipase (HPL) are mutated in some pancreatic lipase-related proteins 2 (PLRP2) that are not reactivated by colipase in the presence of bile salts. One of these residues (Y403) is involved in a direct interaction between the HPL C-terminal domain and colipase. The other four residues (R256, D257, Y267, and K268) are involved in the interactions stabilizing the open conformation of the lid domain, which also interacts with colipase. Here we produced and characterized three HPL mutants: HPL Y403N, an HPL four-site mutant (R256G, D257G, Y267F, and K268E), and an HPL five-site mutant (R256G, D257G, Y267F, K268E, and Y403N), in which the HPL amino acids were replaced by those present in human PLRP2. Colipase reactivated both the HPL Y403N mutant and HPL, and Y403 is therefore not essential for lipase-colipase interactions. Both the HPL four-site and five-site mutants showed low activity on trioctanoin, were inhibited by bile salts (sodium taurodeoxycholate, NaTDC) and were not reactivated by colipase. The interfacial binding of the HPL four-site mutant to a trioctanoin emulsion was suppressed in the presence of 4 mM NaTDC and was not restored by addition of colipase. Protein blotting/protein overlay immunoassay revealed that the HPL four-site mutant-colipase interactions are not abolished, and therefore, the absence of reactivation of the HPL four-site mutant is probably due to a lid domain conformation that prevents the interfacial binding of the lipase-colipase complex. The effects of colipase were also studied with HPL(-lid), an HPL mutant showing an 18-residue deletion within the lid domain, which therefore has only one colipase interaction site. HPL(-lid) showed a low activity on trioctanoin, was inhibited by bile salts, and recovered its lipase activity in the presence of colipase. Reactivation of HPL(-lid) by colipase was associated with a strong interfacial binding of the mutant to a trioctanoin emulsion. The lid domain is therefore not essential for either the interfacial binding of HPL or the lipase-colipase interactions. 相似文献

Pancreatic triglyceride lipase (PTL) requires colipase for activity. Various constituents in meals and in bile, particularly bile acids, inhibit PTL. Colipase restores activity to lipase in the presence of inhibitory substances like bile acids. Presumably, colipase functions by anchoring and orienting PTL at the oil-water interface. The x-ray structure of the colipase.PTL complex supports this model. In the x-ray structure, colipase has a hydrophobic surface positioned to bind substrate and a hydrophilic surface, lying opposite the hydrophobic surface, with two putative lipase-binding domains, Glu(45)/Asp(89) and Glu(64)/Arg(65). To determine whether the hydrophilic surface interacts with PTL in solution, we introduced mutations into the putative PTL binding domains of human colipase. Each mutant was expressed, purified, and assessed for activity against various substrates. Most of the mutants showed impaired ability to reactivate PTL, with mutations in the Glu(64)/Arg(65) binding site causing the greatest effect. Analysis indicated that the mutations decreased the affinity of the colipase mutants for PTL and prevented the formation of PTL.colipase complexes. The impaired function of the mutants was most apparent when assayed in micellar bile salt solutions. Most mutants stimulated PTL activity normally in monomeric bile salt solutions. We also tested the mutants for their ability to bind substrate and anchor lipase to tributyrin. Even though the ability of the mutants to anchor PTL to an interface decreased in proportion to their activity, each mutant colipase bound to tributyrin to the same extent as wild type colipase. These results demonstrate that the hydrophilic surface of colipase interacts with PTL in solution to form active colipase.PTL complexes, that bile salt micelles influence that binding, and that the proper interaction of colipase with PTL requires the Glu(64)/Arg(65) binding site. 相似文献

The interactions between pancreatic lipase and colipase and the substrate and the effect of bile salts on these interactions have been investigated by the use of kinetic experiments and studies on the semiquantitative phase distribution of lipase and colipase activities. The results suggest that lipase binds to hydrophobic interfaces with partial irreversible inactivation. Bile salts in the range of micellar concentrations and above a pH of about 6.5 displace lipase from this binding, resulting in a reversible in activation. At pH values below about 6.5, lipase binds strongly to the substrate even in the presence of bile salt, and a low activity peak is seen around pH 5.5. This is the result of the binding of lipase to the "supersubstrate" and the activity of the catalytic site. In the presence of bile salt, colipase promotes the binding of lipase to the "supersubstrate" but not to other hydrophobic interfaces, and catalytic activity is reestablished. Kinetic data indicate that the binding between colipase and lipase in the presence of substrate is strong and occurs in an approximately stoichiometric relationship. 相似文献

The triglyceride lipases of the pancreas 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

Pancreatic triglyceride lipase (PTL) and its protein cofactor, colipase, are required for efficient dietary triglyceride digestion. In addition to PTL, pancreatic acinar cells synthesize two pancreatic lipase related proteins (PLRP1 and PLRP2), which have a high degree of sequence and structural homology with PTL. PLRP1 has no known activity. PTL and PLRP2 differ in substrate specificity, behavior in bile salts and dependence on colipase. Each protein has a globular amino-terminal (N-terminal) domain, which contains the catalytic site for PTL and PLRP2, and a beta-sandwich carboxyl-terminal (C-terminal) domain, which includes the predominant colipase-binding site for PTL. Inactive and active conformations of PTL have been described. They differ in the position of a surface loop, the lid domain, and of the beta5-loop. In the inactive conformation, the lid covers the active site and, upon activation by bile salt micelles and colipase or by lipid-water interfaces, the lid moves dramatically to open and configure the active site. After the lid movement, PTL and colipase create a large hydrophobic plateau that can interact with the lipid-water interface. A hydrophobic surface loop in the C-terminal domain, the beta5' loop, may also contribute to the interfacial-binding domain of the PTL-colipase complex. 相似文献

The binding of conjugated bile salts to pancreatic colipase and lipase has been studied by equilibrium dialysis and gel filtration. The results indicate that at physiological ionic strength and pH, conjugated bile salts bind as micelles to colipase: 12-15 moles/mole of colipase for the dihydroxy conjugates and 2-4 for the trihydroxy conjugates. No binding of bile salt takes place from monomeric solutions. Under the same experimental conditions, only 1-2 moles of conjugated dihydroxy bile salts bind to pancreatic lipase. 相似文献

It has been suggested that at physiological pH, the trypsin-catalyzed activation of the lipase cofactor, procolipase, to colipase has no consequence for intestinal lipolysis and serves primarily to release the N-terminal pentapeptide, enterostatin, a satiety factor (Larsson, A., and C. Erlanson-Albertsson 1991. The effect of pancreatic procolipase and colipase on pancreatic lipase activation. Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1083:283-288). This hypothesis was tested by measuring the adsorption of [14C]colipase to monolayers of 1-stearoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-3-glycerophosphocholine and 13, 16-cis, cis-docosadienoic acid in the presence and absence of procolipase. With saturating [14C]colipase in the subphase, the surface excess of [14C]colipase is 29% higher than that of procolipase, indicating that colipase packs more tightly in the interface. With [14C]colipase-procolipase mixtures, the proteins compete equally for occupancy of the argon-buffer interface. However, if a monolayer of either or both lipids is present, [14C]colipase dominates the adsorption process, even if bile salt is present in the subphase. If [14C]colipase and procolipase are premixed for > 12 h at pH approximately 8, this dominance is partial. If they are not premixed, procolipase is essentially excluded from the interface, even if procolipase is added before [14C]colipase. These results suggest that the tryptic cleavage of the N-terminal pentapeptide of procolipase may be of physiological consequence in the intestine. 相似文献

Lipase-colipase interactions during gel filtration. High and low affinity binding situations 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The interaction of porcine pancreatic lipase and colipase was studied during gel filtration in columns eluted with a variety of buffers. High and low affinity binding situations were observed under different conditions. Low affinity binding could only be detected at the high lipase-colipase concentrations encountered during batch purification (10(-3)-10(-4) M). Even in this situation the rapid dissociation of the weak complex during filtration resulted in considerable separation of the two proteins. High affinity binding of lipase to colipase was observed at protein eluant concentrations as low as 10(-8) M on columns equilibrated with oleic acid-taurodeoxycholate mixed micelles. This binding did not take place on columns equilibrated with simple bile salt and mixed phosphatidylcholine-cholesterol-bile salt micelles. Colipase alone exhibited strong binding to phosphatidylcholine and fatty acid mixed bile salt micelles when applied together in a sample on columns eluted with pure bile salt micelles, lipase did not. The relevance of the high affinity complex to the lipase . colipase . substrate complex is discussed. 相似文献

Critical role of micelles in pancreatic lipase activation revealed by small angle neutron scattering
Pignol D Ayvazian L Kerfelec B Timmins P Crenon I Hermoso J Fontecilla-Camps JC Chapus C 《The Journal of biological chemistry》2000,275(6):4220-4224
In the duodenum, pancreatic lipase (PL) develops its activity on triglycerides by binding to the bile-emulsified oil droplets in the presence of its protein cofactor pancreatic colipase (PC). The neutron crystal structure of a PC-PL-micelle complex (Hermoso, J., Pignol, D., Penel, S., Roth, M., Chapus, C., and Fontecilla-Camps, J. C. (1997) EMBO J. 16, 5531-5536) has suggested that the stabilization of the enzyme in its active conformation and its adsorption to the emulsified oil droplets are mediated by a preformed lipase-colipase-micelle complex. Here, we correlate the ability of different amphypathic compounds to activate PL, with their association with PC-PL in solution. The method of small angle neutron scattering with D(2)O/H(2)O contrast variation was used to characterize a solution containing PC-PL complex and taurodeoxycholate micelles. The resulting radius of gyration (56 A) and the match point of the solution indicate the formation of a ternary complex that is similar to the one observed in the neutron crystal structure. In addition, we show that either bile salts, lysophospholipids, or nonionic detergents that form micelles with radii of gyration ranging from 13 to 26 A are able to bind to the PC-PL complex, whereas smaller micelles or nonmicellar compounds are not. This further supports the notion of a micelle size-dependent affinity process for lipase activation in vivo. 相似文献

In the intestine, the hydrolysis of triglycerides by pancreatic lipase is performed only in the presence of colipase, whose function is to anchor lipase to the bile-salt-coated lipid interface. Biochemical and crystallographic data on porcine and human lipases have shown that the molecule is made of two well-delimited domains. In order to get more information on the role of the domains in catalysis and colipase binding, we performed limited proteolysis on lipase from various species and obtained different patterns of cleavage. In the case of porcine and human lipases, only the C-terminal domain (12 kDa) could be obtained after chymotryptic attack, whereas in the horse enzyme the cleavage of the Leu410-Thr411 bond gave rise to a large N-terminal (45 kDa) and a small C-terminal (4 kDa) fragment. The isolated porcine and human C-terminal domains were completely inactive towards emulsified tributyrin, though were able to bind colipase. Conversely, the horse 45 kDa fragment retained the lipase activity but failed to correctly bind colipase. This work definitely proves that catalysis and colipase binding are separate events involving topographically distinct regions of the molecule and focuses attention on the role of the C-terminal domain in colipase binding. 相似文献

Inhibition of pancreatic lipase by mixed micelles of diethyl p-nitrophenyl phosphate and bile salts 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
M Rouard H Sari S Nurit B Entressangles P Desnuelle 《Biochimica et biophysica acta》1978,530(2):227-235
Solubility and Sephadex filtration assays have shown that dissolved diethyl p-nitrophenyl phosphate can be included into bile salt micelles with a partition coefficient of 32 : 1. This inclusion is probably a prerequisite for the organophosphate to inhibit lipase. The essential role played by colipase confirms that the primary step in the inhibition is an interaction of lipase with bile salt containing micelles. Therefore, it appears that the requirements of lipase towards specific substrates and inhibitors are very similar. The inhibition rate strongly depends on the total bile salt concentration and on the micellar concentration of the organophosphate. This effect may be explained, at least qualitatively, by a competition between simple and mixed micelles for the binding of colipase and lipase. 相似文献

The rate of hydrolysis of long chain triglycerides by pure bovine pancreatic lipase has been determined in the presence of variable amounts of bile salts and colipase. Cofactor-free lipase is strongly inhibited by sodium taurodesoxycholate and by mixed bovine bile salts at concentrations higher than the critical micellar concentration. Bile salt inhibited lipase is reactivated by the addition of bovine colipase. Gel filtration of pancreatic juice from several species (Cow, dog, pig) on Sephadex G 100 allows the separation of lipase from colipase. It is found that the enzyme catalyzed hydrolysis of long chain triglycerides by pancreatic lipase from one species is activated by the addition of colipase from other species. Studies on the activation of pancreatic lipase by colipase in the presence of bile salts allowed the re-evaluation of optimal conditions for the determination of lipase and the development of a procedure to assay colipase. 相似文献

Access to the active site of human pancreatic lipase (HPL) is controlled by a surface loop (the lid) that undergoes a conformational change in the presence of amphiphiles and lipid substrate. The question of how and when the lid opens still remains to be elucidated, however. A paramagnetic probe was covalently bound to the lid via the D249C mutation, and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy was used to monitor the conformational change in solution. Two EPR spectral components, corresponding to distinct mobilities of the probe, were attributed to the closed and open conformations of the HPL lid, based on experiments performed with the E600 inhibitor. The open conformation of the lid was observed in solution at supramicellar bile salt concentrations. Colipase alone did not induce lid opening but increased the relative proportions of the open conformation in the presence of bile salts. The opening of the lid was found to be a reversible process. Using various colipase to lipase molar ratios, a correlation between the proportion of the open conformation and the catalytic activity of HPL was observed. 相似文献

Interface-mediated inactivation of pancreatic lipase by a water-reactive compound: 2-sulfobenzoic cyclic anhydride 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
2-Sulfobenzoic cyclic anhydride (SBA) rapidly and selectively inactivates porcine pancreatic lipase (PPL) only when added during the hydrolysis of an emulsified ester such as tributyrin or dodecyl acetate. The present data suggest that the inactivation of PPL occurs preferentially at the oil/water interface and not in the aqueous phase, since colipase and bile salt were found to adversely affect the inhibition process. Moreover, it is shown that at a molar ratio of SBA to pure PPL of 1, 40% of the lipase activity was already irreversibly lost. Complete inactivation was observed at SBA to pure PPL molar ratios of 120. A 60% inactivation occurred when 0.5 mol of 3H-labeled SBA was attached per mole of PPL. The SBA-inactivated PPL competes for binding to the dodecyl acetate/water interface as efficiently as the native enzyme. Larger SBA concentrations are required when crude lipase preparations are used as well as with pure PPL in the presence of bile salts and colipase. Lipases were found to have variable sensitivities to SBA inactivation, depending on their origin. In the presence of bile salts and tributyrin at pH 6.0, human gastric lipase activity was not affected by the presence of a 10(6) molar excess of SBA. 相似文献

The conformation of a surface loop, the lid, controls activity of
pancreatic triglyceride lipase (PTL) by moving from a position that sterically
hinders substrate access to the active site into a new conformation that opens
and configures the active site. Movement of the lid is accompanied by a large
change in steady state tryptophan fluorescence. Although a change in the
microenvironment of Trp-253, a lid residue, could account for the increased
fluorescence, the mechanism and tryptophan residues have not been identified.
To identify the tryptophan residues responsible for the increased fluorescence
and to gain insight into the mechanism of lid opening and the structure of PTL
in aqueous solution, we examined the effects of mutating individual tryptophan
residues to tyrosine, alanine, or phenylalanine on lipase activity and steady
state fluorescence. Substitution of tryptophans 86, 107, 253, and 403 reduced
activity against tributyrin with the largest effects caused by substituting
Trp-86 and Trp-107. Trp-107 and Trp-253 fluorescence accounts for the
increased fluorescence emissions of PTL that is stimulated by
tetrahydrolipstatin and sodium taurodeoxycholate. The largest contribution is
from Trp-107. Contrary to the prediction from the crystal structure of PTL,
Trp-107 is likely exposed to solvent. Both tetrahydrolipstatin and sodium
taurodeoxycholate are required to produce the increased fluorescence in PTL.
Alone, neither is sufficient. Colipase does not significantly influence the
conformational changes leading to increased emission fluorescence. Thus,
Trp-107 and Trp-253 contribute to the change in steady state fluorescence that
is triggered by mixed micelles of inhibitor and bile salt. Furthermore, the
results suggest that the conformation of PTL in solution differs significantly
from the conformation in crystals.Lipases belong to a large gene family of proteins characterized by a common
protein structure (1,
2). Included in this family are
pancreatic triglyceride lipase
(PTL,2 triacylglycerol
acylhydrolase, EC 3.1.1.3) and its close homologues pancreatic triglyceride
lipase related proteins 1 and 2
(3). Not only do these
pancreatic lipases have highly conserved primary structures, their x-ray
crystal structures are essentially identical
(4–6).
Each contains two domains, a globular N-terminal domain consisting of an
α/β hydrolase fold and a C-terminal domain consisting of a
β-sandwich structure. A striking feature of these lipases and many others
is the presence of a surface loop termed the lid domain. Together with the
β5 loop and β9 loops of the N-terminal domain, the lid domain
sterically hinders access of substrate to the active site. In this
conformation, PTL cannot hydrolyze substrate, and the existence of another
conformation was proposed
(6).Subsequently, a second, open conformation of PTL was identified in studies
of the crystal structure of the PTL-colipase complex
(7,
8). In these studies, the
investigators obtained crystals of the complex in the presence and absence of
detergent and phospholipid mixed micelles. Without micelles, the lid domain
remained in the same closed position as observed in the PTL structure even
though colipase clearly bound to the C-terminal domain
(8). With micelles, the lid
domain and the β5 loop adopted new conformations
(7). A large hinge movement of
the lid moved the domain away from the active site to form new interactions
with colipase. The lid movement opened and configured the active site to
generate a conformation compatible with catalysis. Additionally, the movement
exposed a large hydrophobic surface on the PTL-colipase complex, a surface
that likely contributes to the anchoring of the complex on the substrate
interface.Although x-ray crystallography studies clearly demonstrated two
conformations of PTL and other lipases, these only provide a static picture of
what may be the beginning and end of the process. The mechanism that triggers
lid opening and the presence of intermediate conformations remains
speculative. Initially, many assumed that a lipid-water interface triggered
the conformational change (9).
However, a number of studies using inhibitors, small angle neutron scattering,
neutron diffraction, and monoclonal antibodies suggest that the lid can open
in solution
(10–14).
In these studies, it was variously suggested that bile salt micelles and
colipase or bile salt micelles alone were sufficient to trigger lid opening.
The presence of a lipid substrate was not required.None of these studies addressed the relative contribution of bile salts and
colipase to the lid opening. A recent paper described the use of electron
paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy combined with site-directed spin labeling
to monitor conformational changes in the PTL lid and to determine the effect
of bile salts and colipase on lid opening
(15). A cysteine was
substituted for Asp-250 in the lid domain, and a paramagnetic probe was linked
at that site. Using this method, the authors observed a mixture of closed and
open conformations of the lid in the presence of bile salt micelles alone.
Colipase by itself did not induce lid opening, but in the presence of bile
salt micelles, colipase increased the relative concentration of PTL in the
open conformation. Although the spin labeling did not have dramatic effects on
the activity of the labeled PTL, it may not be benign. The presence of the
probe may alter the kinetics of lid opening and may explain why a portion of
PTL always stayed in the closed position.Another spectral method to follow conformation changes in proteins is
fluorescence spectroscopy of native tryptophan. After systematically mutating
the three tryptophans to alanine, investigators measured the binding of
Thermomyces lanuginosus lipase and the mutants to mixed micelles of
cis-parinaric acid and bile salt by fluorescence quenching and
fluorescence resonance energy transfer
(16). The measured values
correlated with lid opening and depended on the presence of the single
tryptophan in the lid. PTL shows a large increase in tryptophan fluorescence
when incubated with a lipase inhibitor, tetrahydrolipstatin (THL), in the
presence of bile salts (11).
It was suggested, but not demonstrated, that the fluorescence change reflected
movement of the lid domain. Because PTL contains seven tryptophan residues
including one in the lid, Trp-253, the interpretation of this study is quite
complicated. Another study monitoring time-resolved fluorescence of PTL and
several tryptophan mutants demonstrated that Trp-30 makes a significant
contribution to the tryptophan fluorescence of PTL
(17). The lid tryptophan,
Trp-253, had a low quantum yield and contributed considerably less to the
overall tryptophan fluorescence. This report did not include investigations of
PTL fluorescence in the presence of bile salts or colipase. Consequently, the
assumption that the large increase in steady state fluorescence of PTL in the
presence of THL and bile salt results from changes in the environment of the
lid domain tryptophan remains unproven.To determine whether the increased tryptophan fluorescence of PTL in THL
and bile saIt represents a conformational change in PTL, we measured the
effect of tryptophan substitution mutations on the activity and intrinsic
steady state fluorescence of PTL. Each of the seven tryptophans was mutated to
tyrosine. Selected tryptophans were mutated to alanine or phenylalanine. Each
mutant PTL was expressed and purified. We monitored the effect of bile salts,
colipase, THL, and mixtures of these compounds on the steady state
fluorescence of PTL. 相似文献

Intestinal fat digestion is carried out by the concerted action of pancreatic lipase and its protein cofactor colipase. Colipase is secreted from pancreas as a procolipase and is transformed into colipase by the trypsin cleavage of the Arg5-Gly6 bond during liberation of an N-terminal pentapeptide. The kinetic parameters for the lipase-colipase system compared to the lipase-procolipase system has been compared using trioctanoin and Intralipid as substrates. It was found that at pH 7.0 the Kmapp using Intralipid as substrate was the same for procolipase and colipase, 0.06 mM and 0.05 mM, respectively. At pH 8.0, however, the Kmapp were different-0.23 mM for procolipase and 0.08 mM for colipase. In a similar way the binding between colipase and lipase had a dissociation constant of 2.4 x 10(-6) M at pH 7.0, while for procolipase--lipase binding the dissociation constant was 4.1 x 10(-6) M with no significant difference. At pH 8.0 the binding between colipase and lipase was stronger, Kd being 2.0 x 10(-7) M, while weaker for procolipase and lipase, Kd being 1.0 x 10(-5) M. It is concluded that at the physiological pH value as is found in the intestine, the activation of procolipase to colipase has no influence on the hydrolysis of trioctanoin or Intralipid in the presence of bile salt. 相似文献

The digestion of dietary triglycerides occurs in the duodenum through the action of triglyceride lipase, a pancreatic exocrine protein. The activity of pancreatic lipase is inhibited by the bile salts normally found in the gut lumen. Another pancreatic exocrine protein, colipase, restores the lipolytic activity of triglyceride lipase. The synthesis and secretion of both triglyceride lipase and colipase is increased by dietary fats and secretin. An increase in mRNA accompanies the increased activity, suggesting that the genes for triglyceride lipase and colipase contain nucleotide elements responsive to dietary fats or secretin or both. To study the regulation of colipase expression, we have first isolated the gene for human colipase from a cosmid library with a cDNA probe. The gene was localized to chromosome 6 and is organized into three exons contained in a single 3.3-kb BamHI fragment. The 5'-flanking region of the gene contains a TATA box, a GC box, and a 28-bp region with homology to the rat pancreatic-specific enhancer. This region directs the tissue-specific expression of the chloramphenicol acetyltransferase gene in a transfected rat pancreatic acinar cell line, AR42-J. The same construct is inactive in HEPG2, C2C12, and COS-1 cells. These results demonstrate that the isolated gene for human colipase contains tissue-specific promoter activity in the 5'-flanking DNA. The 28-bp region specifically binds to a factor in nuclear extracts. 相似文献

Cloning and characterization of the human colipase cDNA 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Pancreatic lipase hydrolyzes dietary triglycerides to monoglycerides and fatty acids. In the presence of bile salts, the activity of pancreatic lipase is markedly decreased. The activity can be restored by the addition of colipase, a low molecular weight protein secreted by the pancreas. The action of pancreatic lipase in the gut lumen is dependent upon its interaction with colipase. As a first step in elucidating the molecular events governing the interaction of lipase and colipase with each other and with fatty acids, a cDNA encoding human colipase was isolated from a lambda gt11 cDNA library with a rabbit polyclonal anti-human colipase antibody. The full-length 525 bp cDNA contained an open reading frame encoding 112 amino acids, including a 17 amino acid signal peptide. The predicted protein sequence contains 100% of the published protein sequence for human colipase determined by chemical methods, but predicts the presence of five additional NH2-terminal amino acids and four additional COOH-terminal amino acids. Comparison of the predicted protein sequence with the known sequences of colipase from other species reveals regions of extensive identity. In vitro translation of mRNA transcribed from the cDNA gave a protein of the expected molecular size that was processed by pancreatic microsomal membranes. Sequence analysis of the in vitro translation product after processing demonstrated signal peptide cleavage and the presence of a human procolipase, as exists in the pig and horse colipases. DNA blot analysis was consistent with the presence of a single gene for colipase. RNA blot analysis demonstrated tissue-specific expression of colipase mRNA in the pancreas. Thus, we report, for the first time, a cDNA for colipase.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献
