NAD-linked l-glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase binds to phosphatidylcholine liposomes as shown by the changes in the properties of both the enzyme and the membrane. The surface potential and the fluidity of the liposome membrane (monitored at the 5th C atom depth) change due to the presence of the enzyme, whereas the enzyme is activated by the liposomes. These findings suggest the occurrence of peripheral protein-lipid interactions. 相似文献

Synapsin I is a neuronal phosphoprotein involved in the localization and stabilization of synaptic vesicles. Recently, synapsin I has been detected in several non-neuronal cell lines, but its function in these cells is unclear. To determine the localization of synapsin I in non-neuronal cells, it was transiently expressed in HeLa and NIH/3T3 cells as an enhanced green fluorescent protein fusion protein. Synapsin I-enhanced green fluorescent protein colocalized with F-actin in both cell lines, particularly with microspikes and membrane ruffles. It did not colocalize with microtubules or vimentin and it did not cause major alterations in cytoskeletal organization. Synapsin Ia-enhanced green fluorescent protein colocalized with microtubule bundles in taxol-treated HeLa cells and with F-actin spots at the plasma membrane in cells treated with cytochalasin B. It did not noticeably affect F-actin reassembly following drug removal. Synapsin Ia-enhanced green fluorescent protein remained colocalized with F-actin in cells treated with nocodazole, and it did not affect reassembly of microtubules following drug removal. These results demonstrate that synapsin I interacts with F-actin in non-neuronal cells and suggest that synapsin I may have a role in regions where actin is highly dynamic. 相似文献

Liposomes containing amphotericin B as ionophoric marker were used to investigate the fusion of bilayer phospholipid membranes with liposomes. It was found that latrotoxin isolated from black widow spider venom induced the fusion of liposomes with planar bilayer when liposomes and latrotoxin were administered at opposite sides of the membrane. 相似文献

The permeability of liposome membranes is increased by organophosphorus and organochlorinated insecticides at concentrations of 10−5−10−4 M. The order of effectiveness is similar to the toxicity of the compounds to mammals, and is the following for permeation of non-electrolytes and for valinomycin-induced permeation of K+: parathion > 1,1,1-trichloro-2,2-bis(p-chlorophenyl) ethane (DDT) ≈ aldrin malathion > lindane. The degree of effectiveness for X-537A-induced permeation of Ca2+ was the following: aldrin DDT > parathion malathion > lindane. The organophosphorus compound, ethyl azinphos (10−4 M), dramatically increases the permeability of liposome membranes to all the tested substances, probably as a consequence of surfactant effects. Some organochlorinated insecticides appear to react with cation ionophores and modulate their motion across lipid membranes.It is suggested that the insecticides may exert some of their toxic actions by modifying certain mechanisms in the cell membrane. 相似文献

The interaction of chlorpromazine (CPZ) with artificial membranes (egg-yolk phosphatidylcholine liposomes) has been studied. Measurements of the surface electric potential, which is modified in the presence of the ionized form of the drug, were obtained by electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR) using a positively charged amphiphilic spin-probe. This probe partitions between the aqueous and lipidic phases depending on the surface potential and on the structural state of the membrane. The surface potential was measured as a function of drug concentration in the range where the spectral line-shapes are not affected by the incorporation of the drug. From these experimental results and through an appropriate formalism we obtain information on the binding of the drug to the lipid bilayer and on the ionization of the drug in the lipidic phase.

The interactions of carbonmonoxyhemoglobin (HbCO), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), and polyhistidine with phospholipid monolayers at the air-water interface were studied at physiological pH and ionic strength. HbCO and GAPDH both interact more strongly with monolayers containing negatively charged lipids. The interaction of HbCO and GAPDH with lipid monolayers decreases with increasing pH. Both the HbCO-monolayer and the GAPDH-monolayer interactions can be modeled as diffusion-limited processes, with kinetic data fit to a stretched exponential equation. The significance of these kinetics are discussed. Polyhistidine interacts only with monolayers containing lipids with negatively charged headgroups. In total, the results presented are consistent with an HbCO-lipid interaction with a large electrostatic component, a GAPDH-lipid interaction with comparable electrostatic and hydrophobic components, and a polyhistidine-lipid interaction that is solely electrostatic. 相似文献

During heat shock conditions, structural changes in cellular membranes may lead to cell death. Hsp90AA1 and other heat shock proteins involved in membranes are responsible for protecting membrane stabilization. However, the membrane binding mechanism of Hsp90AA1 remains largely uncharacterized. In this study, we showed Hsp90AA1 interacts with phospholipid membrane with high affinity. Using the depth-dependent fluorescence-quenching with brominated lipids, we found Hsp90AA1 penetrated 10.7?Å into the hydrocarbon core of the lipid bilayer. Circular dichroism spectra studies showed Hsp90AA1 lost part of its α-helical structures upon interaction with phospholipid membrane. By assessing binding properties of the three Hsp90AA1 domains, we found Hsp90AA1 interacted into the lipid bilayer mainly toward its C-terminus domain (CTD). Using scanning electron microscopy, we examined the protection on host cell membrane by overexpressing Hsp90AA1. The results indicated Hsp90AA1 or Hsp90AA1-CTD expressing E. coli cells exhibited better membrane integrity compared to the control after thermal treatment. The following liposome leakage assay suggested the protection of Hsp90AA1 might due to its stabilization of the membrane lipid. Collectively, the present study demonstrates Hsp90AA1 embeds into the lipid bilayer through its C-terminal domain and the Hsp90AA1-lipid association potentially has a significant function in keeping membranes stabilization during stress conditions. 相似文献

The complexity of pro- and eukaryotic lipidomes is increasingly appreciated mainly owing to the advance of mass spectrometric methods. Biophysical approaches have revealed that the large number of lipid classes and molecular species detected have implications for the self-organizing potential of biological membranes, resulting in the formation of lateral heterogeneous phases. How membrane proteins are able to adapt specifically to their surrounding heterogeneous matrix, and whether this environment affects protein targeting and function, is therefore a matter of particular interest. Here, we review specific protein-lipid interactions, focusing on the molecular mechanisms that determine specificity at the protein-lipid interface, and on membrane proteins that require lipids as cofactors for their architecture and function. 相似文献

Synapsin I is the most abundant brain phosphoprotein present in conventional synapses of the CNS. Knockout and rescue experiments have demonstrated that synapsin is essential for clustering of synaptic vesicles (SVs) at active zones and the organization of the reserve pool of SVs. However, in spite of intense efforts it remains largely unknown how exactly synapsin I performs this function. It has been proposed that synapsin I in its dephosphorylated state may tether SVs to actin filaments within the cluster from where SVs are released in response to activity-induced synapsin phosphorylation. Recent studies, however, have failed to detect actin filaments inside the vesicle cluster at resting central synapses. Instead, proteins with established functional roles in SV recycling have been found within this presynaptic compartment. Here we discuss potential alternative mechanisms of synapsin I-dependent SV clustering in the reserve pool. 相似文献

The interaction of liposomes with a series of fluorescent berberine derivatives having different alkyl chain lengths has been investigated. The hydrophobicity of the binding site on the phospholipid membrane increases and mobility decreases with the length of the alkyl chain. If lauryl sulphate micelles are used to bind berberines, the hydrophobicity of the binding site is the same for all derivatives. The dye series represents a model with constant charge and growing lipophilicity. Both electrostatic forces and lipophilicity play an important role in binding. By virtue of the excellent sensitivity of the dyes to medium polarity, berberines prove to be suitable probes for measuring membrane potential, but only in cases when a negative charge is generated in the liposomal interior. The fluorescence response is a linear function of the potential magnitude. 相似文献

The effects of phospholipid vesicles and divalent cations in the subphase solution on the surface tension of phospholipid monolayer membranes were studied in order to elucidate the nature of the divalent cation-induced vesicle-membrane interaction. The monolayers were formed at the air/water interface. Various concentrations of unilamellar phospholipid (phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylcholine and their mixtures) vesicles and divalent cations (Mg2+, Ca2+, Mn2+, etc.) were introduced into the subphase solution of the monolayers. The changes of surface tension of monolayers were measured by the Wilhelmy plate (Teflon) method with respect to divalent ion concentrations and time.When a monolayer of phosphatidylserine and vesicles of phosphatidylserine/phosphatidylcholine (1 : 1) were used, there were critical concentrations of divalent cations to produce a large reduction in surface tension of the monolayer. These concentrations were 16 mM for Mg2+, 7 mM for Sr2+, 6 mM for Ca2+, 3.5 mM for Ba2+ and 1.8 mM for Mn2+. On the other hand, for a phosphatidylcholine monolayer and phosphatidylcholine vesicles, there was no change in surface tension of the monolayer up to 25 mM of any divalent ion used. When a phosphatidylserine monolayer and phosphatidylcholine vesicles were used, the order of divalent ions to effect the large reduction of surface tension was Mn2+ > Ca2+ > Mg2+ and their critical concentrations were in between the former two cases. The threshold concentrations also depended upon vesicle concentrations as well as the area/molecule of monolayers. For phosphatidylserine monolayers and phosphatidylserine/phosphatidylcholine (1 : 1) vesicles, above the critical concentrations of Mn2+ and Ca2+, the surface tension decreased to a value close to the equilibrium pressure of the monolayers within 0.5 h.This decrease in surface tension of the monolayers is interpreted partly as the consequence of fusion of the vesicles with the monolayer membranes.

Liposomes of phospholipids fully sustain the enzyme activity of the amphiphile-dependent dimers of human erythrocyte membrane acetylcholinesterase; no head group specificity exists. Diacylglycerides, glycerophosphorylcholine, or free fatty acids do not sustain the catalytic activity. It could be shown that the dimeric acetylcholinesterase with an exposed hydrophobic region can penetrate the lipid bilayer of liposomes and thus becomes stabilized by the surrounding phospholipid molecules. 相似文献

The dependence of the surface potential difference (ΔU), transversal elasticity module (E1) and membrane conductivity (G0) on the concentrations of the antiviral drugs, rimantadine and amantadine was studied in the planar bilayer lipid membrane system. The method used was based on independent measurements of the second and third harmonics of the membrane capacitance current. The binding constants of bilayer lipid membranes obtained from the drug adsorption isotherms were 2.1 · 105 M?1 and 1.3 · 104 M?1 for rimantadine and amantadine, respectively. The changes in G0 took place only after drug adsorption saturation had been achieved. The influence of rimantadine and amantadine on the interaction of bilayer lipid membranes with matrix protein from influenza virus was also investigated. The presence of 70 μg/ml rimantadine in the bathing solution resulted in an increase in the concentration of M-protein at which the adsorption and conductance changes were observed. The effects of amantadine were similar to those of rimantadine but required a higher critical concentration of amantadine. The results obtained suggest that the antiviral properties of rimantadine and amantadine may be related to the interaction of these drugs with the cell membrane, which can affect virus penetration into the cell as well as maturation of the viral particle at the cell membrane. 相似文献

A number of candidate Egr-1 neuronal target genes have been identified including the synapsin I gene. Previous studies have shown that over-expression of Egr-1 in cells transfected with an Egr-1 expression vector is sufficient to activate reporter genes linked to regions of the synapsin I promoter, but any effect on the expression of synapsin I within its genomic context has not been demonstrated. We tested our hypothesis that modulation of synapsin I expression by Egr-1 requires the presence of elevated cAMP which would normally be present during periods of neuronal plasticity. Both the adenyl cyclase activator, forskolin (frsk), and the cAMP analogue, Sp-Adenosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphorothioate triethylammonium salt (Sp-cAMPS), enhanced the ability of Egr-1 to transactivate a CAT reporter plasmid containing multiple copies of the Egr-1 binding site (EBS). Furthermore, Egr-1 alone had minimal effects on synapsin I expression whereas forskolin treatment of PC12 cells profoundly affected the ability of Egr-1 to regulate synapsin I expression. These results suggest that Egr-1 transactivation during neuronal plasticity may rely on a permissive effect of cAMP. 相似文献

Small unilamellar phosphatidylserine/phosphatidylcholine liposomes incubated on one side of planar phosphatidylserine bilayer membranes induced fluctuations and a sharp increase in the membrane conductance when the Ca2+ concentration was increased to a threshold of 3–5 mM in 100 mM NaCl, pH 7.4. Under the same ionic conditions, these liposomes fused with large (0.2 μm diameter) single-bilayer phosphatidylserine vesicles, as shown by a fluorescence assay for the mixing of internal aqueous contents of the two vesicle populations. The conductance behavior of the planar membranes was interpreted to be a consequence of the structural rearrangement of phospholipids during individual fusion events and the incorporation of domains of phosphatidylcholine into the Ca2+-complexed phosphatidylserine membrane. The small vesicles did not aggregate or fuse with one another at these Ca2+ concentrations, but fused preferentially with the phosphatidylserine membrane, analogous to simple exocytosis in biological membranes. Phosphatidylserine vesicles containing gramicidin A as a probe interacted with the planar membranes upon raising the Ca2+ concentration from 0.9 to 1.2 mM, as detected by an abrupt increase in the membrane conductance. In parallel experiments, these vesicles were shown to fuse with the large phosphatidylserine liposomes at the same Ca2+ concentration. 相似文献

Lipid dynamics and lipid-protein interactions were examined in basolateral membranes prepared from rat proximal and distal colonic epithelial cells. The results demonstrate that: (1) these membranes have a high lipid fluidity, as assessed by steady-state fluorescence polarization studies using seven fluorescent probes; (2) lipid compositional differences exist between these membranes but their fluidity is similar; (3) fluorescence polarizations studies, using diphenylhexatriene (DPH), detect a thermotropic transition at 22–23°C in each membrane; (4) several membrane protein activities, including adenylate cyclase and sodium-potassium dependent adenosine triphosphatase () appear to be functionally dependent on the physical state of the proximal basolateral membrane's lipid. 相似文献

The characteristics of small unilamellar, large unilamellar and large multilamellar vesicles of dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine and their interaction with α-lactalbumin are compared at pH 4. (1) By differential scanning calorimetry and from steady-state fluorescence anisotropy data of the lipophilic probe 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene it is shown that the transition characteristics of the phospholipids in the large unilamellar vesicles resemble more those of the multilamellar vesicles than of the small unilamellar vesicles. (2) The size and composition of the lipid-protein complex formed with α-lactalbumin around the transition temperature of the lipid are independent of the vesicle type used. Fluorescence anisotropy data indicate that in this complex the motions of the lipid molecules are strongly restricted in the presence of α-lactalbumin. (3) The previous data and a comparison of the enthalpy changes, , of the interaction of the three vesicle types with α-lactalbumin allow us to derive that the enthalpy state of the small unilamellar vesicles just below 24°C is about 24 kJ/mol lipid higher than the enthalpy state of both large vesicle types at the same temperature. The abrupt transition from endothermic to exothermic values around 24°C for large vesicles approximates the transition enthalpy of the pure phospholipid 相似文献

The model membrane approach was used to investigate the surface charge effect on the ion-antibiotic complexation process. Mixed monolayers of valinomycin and lipids were spread on subphases containing K+ or Na+. The surface charge density was modified by spreading ionizable valinomycin analogs on aqueous subphases of different pH or by changing the nature of the lipid (neutral, negatively charged) in the mixed film. Surface pressure and surface potential measurements demonstrated that a neutral lipid (phosphatidylcholine) or positively charged valinomycin analogs didn't enhance the antibiotic complexing capacity. However, a maximal complexation is reached for a critical lipid concentration in the valinomycin-phosphatidylserine mixed film. The role of the surface charge on the valinomycin complexing properties was examined in terms of the Gouy-Chapman theory. As a consequence of the negative charge of the lipid monolayer, the K+ concentration near the surface is larger than the bulk concentration, by a Boltzmann factor. A good agreement was observed between the experimental results and the theoretical predictions. Conductance measurements of asymmetric bilayers containing a neutral lipid (egg lecithin) on one side and a negatively charged lipid (phosphatidylserine) on the other, confirm the role of the surface charge. Indeed, addition of K+ to the neutral side of the bilayer containing valinomycin had no effect on the conductance whereas addition of K+ to the charged side of the bilayer caused a 80-fold conductance increase. 相似文献
