The endogenous cannabinoid ligand anandamide is biosynthesized from membrane phospholipid precursors and is believed to reach its sites of action on the CB1 and CB2 receptors through fast lateral diffusion within the cell membrane. To gain a better insight on the stereochemical features of its association with the cell membrane and its interaction with the cannabinoid receptors, we have studied its conformation, location, and dynamic properties in a dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine multilamellar model membrane bilayer system. By exploiting the bilayer lattice as an internal three-dimensional reference grid, the conformation and location of anandamide were determined by measuring selected inter- and intramolecular distances between strategically introduced isotopic labels using the rotational echo double resonance (REDOR) NMR method. A molecular model was proposed to represent the structural features of our anandamide/lipid system and was subsequently used in calculating the multispin dephasing curves. Our results demonstrate that anandamide adopts an extended conformation within the membrane with its headgroup at the level of the phospholipid polar group and its terminal methyl group near the bilayer center. Parallel static (2)H NMR experiments further confirmed these findings and provided evidence that anandamide experiences dynamic properties similar to those of the membrane phospholipids and produces no perturbation to the bilayer. Our results are congruent with a hypothesis that anandamide approaches its binding site by laterally diffusing within one membrane leaflet in an extended conformation and interacts with a hydrophobic groove formed by helices 3 and 6 of CB1, where its terminal carbon is positioned close to a key cysteine residue in helix 6 leading to receptor activation. 相似文献

Two key commonly used cannabinergic agonists, CP55940 and WIN55212-2, are investigated for their effects on the lipid membrane bilayer using (2)H solid state NMR, and the results are compared with our earlier work with delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ(9)-THC). To study the effects of these ligands we used hydrated bilayers of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) deuterated at the 2' and 16' positions of both acyl chains with deuterium atoms serving as probes for the dynamic and phase changes at the membrane interface and at the bilayer center respectively. All three cannabinergic ligands lower the phospholipid membrane phase transition temperature, increase the lipid sn-2 chain order parameter at the membrane interface and decrease the order at the center of the bilayer. Our studies show that the cannabinoid ligands induce lateral phase separation in the lipid membrane at physiological temperatures. During the lipid membrane phase transition, the cooperative dynamic process whereby the C-(2)H segments at the interface and center of the bilayer spontaneously reach the fast exchange regime ((2)H NMR timescale) is distinctively modulated by the two cannabinoids. Specifically, CP55940 is slightly more efficient at inducing liquid crystalline-type (2)H NMR spectral features at the membrane interface compared to WIN55212-2. In contrast, WIN55212-2 has a far superior ability to induce liquid crystalline-type spectral features at the center of the bilayer, and it increases the order parameter of the sn-1 chain in addition to the sn-2 chain of the lipids. These observations suggest the cannabinoid ligands may influence lipid membrane domain formations and there may be contributions to their cannabinergic activities through lipid membrane microdomain related mechanisms. Our work demonstrates that experimental design strategies utilizing specifically deuterium labeled lipids yield more detailed insights concerning the properties of lipid bilayers. 相似文献

Molecular dynamics simulations of a dioleoylphosphocholine (DOPC) lipid bilayer were performed to explore its mechanosensitivity. Variations in the bilayer properties, such as area per lipid, volume, thickness, hydration depth (HD), hydration thickness (HT), lateral diffusion coefficient, and changes in lipid structural order were computed in the membrane tension range 0 to 15dyn/cm. We determined that an increase in membrane tension results in a decrease in the bilayer thickness and HD of ~5% and ~5.7% respectively, whereas area per lipid, volume, and HT/HD increased by 6.8%, 2.4%, and 5% respectively. The changes in lipid conformation and orientation were characterized using orientational (S(2)) and deuterium (S(CD)) order parameters. Upon increase of membrane tension both order parameters indicated an increase in lipid disorder by 10-20%, mostly in the tail end region of the hydrophobic chains. The effect of membrane tension on lipid lateral diffusion in the DOPC bilayer was analyzed on three different time scales corresponding to inertial motion, anomalous diffusion and normal diffusion. The results showed that lateral diffusion of lipid molecules is anomalous in nature due to the non-exponential distribution of waiting times. The anomalous and normal diffusion coefficients increased by 20% and 52% when the membrane tension changed from 0 to 15dyn/cm, respectively. In conclusion, our studies showed that membrane tension causes relatively significant changes in the area per lipid, volume, polarity, membrane thickness, and fluidity of the membrane suggesting multiple mechanisms by which mechanical perturbation of the membrane could trigger mechanosensitive response in cells. 相似文献

In earlier work, we reported on the manner with which lipophilic drug molecules interact with the cell membrane in order to (a) enter the bilayer and laterally diffuse to their respective protein sites of action, or (b) penetrate this biological barrier to reach the cell interior. A remaining uncertainty is how lipophilic molecules reach the hydrophobic membrane core after traversing the aqueous medium and membrane polar surface. Here we present preliminary data using deuterium NMR, demonstrating the role of bovine serum albumin in facilitating this process. Our observation allows us to postulate a mechanism by which the passive transport of lipophilic ligands across the membrane can be greatly enhanced through the assistance of carrier proteins. 相似文献

The incompressibility of the lipid bilayer keeps the total surface area of the red cell membrane constant. Local conservation of membrane surface area requires that each surface element of the membrane skeleton keeps its area when its aspect ratio is changed. A change in area would require a flow of lipids past the intrinsic proteins to which the skeleton is anchored. in fast red cell deformations, there is no time for such a flow. Consequently, the bilayer provides for local area conservation. In quasistatic deformations, the extent of local change in surface area is the smaller the larger the isotropic modulus of the skeleton in relation to the shear modulus. Estimates indicate: (a) the velocity of relative flow between lipid and intrinsic proteins is proportional to the gradient in normal tension within the skeleton and inversely proportional to the viscosity of the bilayer; (b) lateral diffusion of lipids is much slower than this flow; (c) membrane tanktreading at frequencies prevailing in vivo as well as the release of a membrane tongue from a micropipette are fast deformations; and (d) the slow phase in micropipette aspiration may be dominated by a local change in skeleton surface. 相似文献

Effects of membrane lipids on ion channel structure and function 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Biologic membranes are not simply inert physical barriers, but complex and dynamic environments that affect membrane protein structure and function. Residing within these environments, ion channels control the flux of ions across the membrane through conformational changes that allow transient ion flux through a central pore. These conformational changes may be modulated by changes in transmembrane electrochemical potential, the binding of small ligands or other proteins, or changes in the local lipid environment. Ion channels play fundamental roles in cellular function and, in higher eukaryotes, are the primary means of intercellular signaling, especially between excitable cells such as neurons. The focus of this review is to examine how the composition of the bilayer affects ion channel structure and function. This is an important consideration because the bilayer composition varies greatly in different cell types and in different organellar membranes. Even within a membrane, the lipid composition differs between the inner and outer leaflets, and the composition within a given leaflet is both heterogeneous and highly dynamic. Differential packing of lipids (and proteins) leads to the formation of microdomains, and lateral diffusion of these microdomains or "lipid rafts" serve as mobile platforms for the clustering and organization of bilayer constituents including ion channels. The structure and function of these channels are sensitive to specific chemical interactions with neighboring components of the membrane and also to the biophysical properties of their membrane microenvironment (e.g., fluidity, lateral pressure profile, and bilayer thickness). As specific examples, we have focused on the K+ ion channels and the ligand-gated nicotinicoid receptors, two classes of ion channels that have been well-characterized structurally and functionally. The responsiveness of these ion channels to changes in the lipid environment illustrate how ion channels, and more generally, any membrane protein, may be regulated via cellular control of membrane composition. 相似文献

Lipid lateral diffusion and local microviscosity in plant mitochondrial membranes with various length and unsaturation of fatty acids 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Catherine Cantrel Olivier Caiveau François Moreau Alain Zachowski 《Physiologia plantarum》2000,110(4):443-449
Two main aspects of the lipid dynamics, local microviscosity and lateral diffusion, were investigated in intact plant mitochondria isolated from different tissues exhibiting large differences in their fatty acids in terms of unsaturation (amount of linoleic and linolenic acids) or length of the hydrocarbon chains. In addition, the same parameters were determined in the outer and inner membranes isolated from cauliflower mitochondria, which differed not only in the fatty acid composition but also by the lipid-to-protein ratio. In intact mitochondria, local microviscosity assayed with anthroyloxy-fatty acids exhibited a transverse gradient from the surface to the center of the bilayer, which was mainly affected by the unsaturation index and the content in linoleic or linolenic acids. In contrast, lipid lateral diffusion increased as the content in linolenic or palmitic acids increased, but was not directly correlated to the unsaturation index. Interestingly, local microviscosity at the membrane surface was higher in the outer membrane than in the inner membrane, whereas no significant difference was found in lipid lateral diffusion. These results indicate that the influence of the fatty acid composition of mitochondrial membranes on the dynamics of the phospholipid bilayer depends on the type of movement considered and suggest that other parameters, such as the protein content of the bilayer, also affect membrane fluidity. 相似文献

A comparative study of several model lipid bilayers of different composition, which included analysis of kinetic parameters of model lipid bilayers and permeability of bilayer membranes for small molecules, has been carried out. The conformity of results of numeric experiments to experimental data (structure of membrane lipid bilayers, lateral diffusion coefficients, and relative permeability of biomembranes for ligands) is discussed in the framework of a standard molecular dynamics protocol. 相似文献

The localization of ubiquinone has been investigated in phospholipid bilayer vesicles in studies of fluorescence quenching of membrane-bound probes by ubiquinone homologs (Qn, where n is the number of the isoprenoid units of the chain). Fluorescence-quenching data obtained by using a set of anthroylstearate probes, having the fluorophore located at different depths, revealed that ubiquinone-3 is located throughout the whole bilayer thickness. From the bimolecular quenching constants in the membrane, lateral diffusion coefficients in two dimensions were calculated to span values of 10(-7)-10(-6) cm2.s-1. This suggests that ubiquinones laterally diffuse in a very fluid environment. On this basis, it is proposed that their translational diffusion in the bilayer takes place in two dimensions, with the quinone ring oscillating between the two bilayer surfaces within a hydrophobic environment not extending beyond the glycerol region. This model implies that the quinonic head is both settled near the polar surface of the bilayer and buried into the host hydrocarbon interior. This two-site distribution was confirmed for all Qn, except Q0, by their linear dichroism spectra in the bilayers provided by disc-like lyotropic nematic liquid crystals. These spectra also provided detailed information on the preferential orientations of the quinonic head of the different derivatives within the two sites. The mechanism by which the localization and orientation of Qn guest molecules inside the host bilayer is modulated by the isoprenoid chain length is discussed on a thermodynamical basis. Being that Qn is expected to be also widely contained in the highly curved cristae of the mitochondrial inner membrane, by using rod-like lyotropic nematic liquid crystals we searched out effects of the curvature of the host bilayer on those Qn distributions. The linear dichroism measurements reveal that Qn guest molecules are no longer obliged to find a partition between two different types of localizations when the host bilayer is highly curved. In this case all Qn, even the longest Q10, were found to stay parallel to the amphiphilic chains with a single site localization of the head near the polar interface. By the same linear dichroism technique, the local ordering of all Qn derivatives was also evaluated. The order parameters were found to be basically the same for all derivatives. This result is justified on the basis of the relaxation, caused by the surface curvature, of the lateral compression of the host chains. 相似文献

Nisin, a prominent member of the lantibiotic family of antimicrobial agents, has wide application as a food preservative despite
poor understanding of its mode of action. Fluorescence recovery after photobleaching has been used with planar lipid bilayers
as a model membrane system to examine how nisin might interact with the surface of bacterial cells. Nisin associates with
planar lipid bilayers in the absence of an applied membrane potential causing an array of effects consistent with adsorption
of nisin onto the membrane surface which involves inhibition of the lateral diffusion and fluorescence of the lipid probe
N-(7--1,2,3-benzoxadiazol-4-yl) phosphatidylethanolamine (NBD-PE) and a reduction of the capacitance of the bilayer. Nisin
adsorption is dependent on phospholipid composition. In the presence of dioleoylphosphatidylcholine (PC): cardiolipin (CL)
4:1, the rate of lateral mobility of phospholipid is reduced to 61% of the control level which decreases to a value of 46%
when CL is replaced by 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoylphosphatidylserine (PS). These effects on bilayer parameters are transient, and
with time the values return to near original levels. High electrical conductivity is observed on application of a voltage
ramp suggesting that insertion into the membrane follows surface association. Results have been interpreted in terms of a
model in which nisin initially binds to the surface of the membrane causing a modulation of bilayer properties.

Stimulated echo pulsed-field gradient 1H magic angle spinning NMR has been used to investigate the mobility of water, ubiquinone and tethered phospholipids, components of a biomimetic model membrane. The diffusion constant of water corresponds to an isotropic motion in a cylinder. When the lipid bilayer is obtained after the fusion of small unilamellar vesicles, the extracted value of lipid diffusion indicates unrestricted motion. The cylindrical arrangement of the lipids permits a simplification of data analysis since the normal bilayer is perpendicular to the gradient axis. This feature leads to a linear relation between the logarithm of the attenuation of the signal intensity and a factor depending on the gradient strength, for lipids covering the inner wall of aluminium oxide nanopores as well as for lipids adsorbed on a polymer sheet rolled into a cylinder. The effect of the bilayer formation on water diffusion has also been observed. The lateral diffusion coefficient of ubiquinone is in the same order of magnitude as the lipid lateral diffusion coefficient, in agreement with its localization within the bilayer. 相似文献

A membrane bilayer pathway model has been proposed for the interaction of dihydropyridine (DHP) calcium channel antagonists with receptors in cardiac sarcolemma (Rhodes, D.G., J.G. Sarmiento, and L.G. Herbette. 1985. Mol. Pharmacol. 27:612-623) involving drug partition into the bilayer with subsequent receptor binding mediated (though probably not rate-limited) by diffusion within the bilayer. Recently, we have characterized the partition step, demonstrating that DHPs reside, on a time-average basis, near the bilayer hydrocarbon core/water interface. Drug distribution about this interface may define a plane of local concentration for lateral diffusion within the membrane. The studies presented herein examine the diffusional dynamics of an active rhodamine-labeled DHP and a fluorescent phospholipid analogue (DiIC16) in pure cardiac sarcolemmal lipid multibilayer preparations as a function of bilayer hydration. At maximal bilayer hydration, the drug diffuses over macroscopic distances within the bilayer at a rate identical to that of DiI (D = 3.8 X 10(-8) cm2/s), demonstrating the overall feasibility of the membrane diffusion model. The diffusion coefficients for both drug and lipid decreased substantially as the bilayers were dehydrated. While identical at maximal hydration, drug diffusion was significantly slower than that of DiIC16 in partially dehydrated bilayers, probably reflecting differences in mass distribution of these probes in the bilayer. 相似文献

A number of mechanisms have been proposed to account for the decrease in protein lateral diffusion coefficients in a lipid bilayer membrane, as the concentration of proteins is increased. One such mechanism is the steric hindrance (via, say, a hard-core repulsion) to the lateral movement of a protein due to the proximity of other proteins. Here a model is presented to study this effect alone. It is argued that the model will overestimate the effect being studied. The results of computer simulations show that such a mechanism will decrease the lateral diffusion coefficient by less than a factor of 20 below the zero-concentration limit, even when up to 81.7% of the bilayer surface is composed of integral proteins. This result supports the opinion (Kell, D.B. (1984) Trends Biochem. Sci. 9, 379) that such a mechanism cannot account for a decrease in the lateral diffusion coefficient by two or three orders of magnitude. 相似文献

According to "fluid-mosaic model," plasma membrane is a bilayer constituted by phospholipids which regulates the various cellular activities governed by many proteins and enzymes. Any chemical, biochemical, or physical factor has to interact with the bilayer in order to regulate the cellular metabolism where various physicochemical properties of membrane, i.e., polarization, fluidity, electrostatic potential, and phase state may get affected. In this study, we have observed the in vivo effects of a pro-carcinogen 1,2-dimethylhydrazine dihydrochloride (DMH) and the two non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs); sulindac and celecoxib on various properties of the plasma membrane of colonocytes, i.e., electric potential, fluidity, anisotropy, microviscosity, lateral diffusion, and phase state in the experimentally induced colorectal cancer. A number of fluorescence probes were utilized like membrane fluidity and anisotropy by 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene, membrane microviscosity by Pyrene, membrane electric potential by merocyanine 540, lateral diffusion by N-NBD-PE, and phase state by Laurdan. It is observed that membrane phospholipids are less densely packed and therefore, the membrane is more fluid in case of carcinogenesis produced by DMH than control. But NSAIDs are effective in reverting back the membrane toward normal state when co-administered with DMH. The membrane becomes less fluid, composed of low electric potential phospholipids whose lateral diffusion is being prohibited and the membrane stays mostly in relative gel phase. It may be stated that sulindac and celecoxib, the two NSAIDs may exert their anti-neoplastic role in colorectal cancer via modifying the physicochemical properties of the membranes. 相似文献

Microinjection in combination with microfluorimetry to study proton diffusion along phospholipid membranes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Proton diffusion along the surface of a planar bilayer lipid membrane was measured by means of acid/base injection with a micropipette and recording of the kinetics of fluorescence changes of fluorescein-labelled lipid on the surface. The dimensionality of the process was assayed by fitting the kinetic curves with two-dimensional (2D) or three-dimensional (3D) diffusion equations. In agreement with Serowy et al. (Biophys J 84:1031-1037, 2003), lateral proton diffusion proceeded via bulk phase by means of buffer molecules as proton carriers (D = 600 microm2/s) under the conditions of 1 mM buffer in the solution. Introduction of proton binding sites on the membrane surface led to the appearance of a considerable contribution of two-dimensional proton diffusion on the membrane surface with D = 1,100 mum(2)/s. The system described can be used to study the dependence of the proton diffusion rate on the phospholipid and protein composition of the membrane. 相似文献

A "membrane bilayer pathway" model, involving ligand partition into the bilayer, lateral diffusion, and receptor binding has been invoked to describe the 1,4-dihydropyridine (DHP) calcium channel antagonist receptor binding mechanism. In an earlier study (Chester et al. 1987. Biophys. J. 52:1021-1030), the diffusional component of this model was examined using an active fluorescence labeled DHP calcium channel antagonist, nisoldipine-lissamine rhodamine B (Ns-R), in purified cardiac sarcolemmal (CSL) lipid multibilayers. Diffusion coefficient measurements on membrane-bound drug and phospholipid at maximum bilayer hydration yielded similar values (3.8 x 10(-8) cm2/s). However, decreases in bilayer hydration resulted in dramatically reduced diffusion coefficient values for both probes with substantially greater impact on Ns-R diffusion. These data suggested that hydration dependent diffusional differences could be a function of relative probe location along the bilayer normal. In this communication, we have addressed the relative effect of the rhodamine substituent on Ns-R diffusion complex by examining the diffusional dynamics of free rhodamine B under the same conditions used to evaluate Ns-R complex and phospholipid diffusion. X-ray diffraction studies were performed to determine the Ns-R location in the membrane and model the CSL lipid bilayer profile structure to give a rationale for the differences in probe diffusional dynamics as a function of interbilayer water space. 相似文献

Interactions of several pyrethroids with membrane lipids in the form of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) liposomes have been studied using fluorescent membrane probes. Fluorescence anisotropy values and lifetimes (determined by phase-shift and demodulation techniques) of the fluorescent probe, 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene, were decreased in gel phase liposomes by pyrethroids at concentrations on the order of 10 microM. The pyrethroids containing a cyano substituent were also observed to cause collisional quenching of diphenylhexatriene fluorescence. Pyrethroids differed in their effectiveness at lowering the phase transition temperature of DPPC, and in their ability to broaden the temperature range of this transition. The fluorescence intensity of DPPC-incorporated chlorophyll a was used to monitor the pretransition of DPPC and the lateral diffusion of a membrane component located in the polar headgroup region. Permethrin did not affect chlorophyll a fluorescence intensity at any temperature. It may be concluded from these results that pyrethroids are preferentially located in the interior hydrophobic regions of the lipid bilayer, and that these compounds can disorder hydrocarbon packing in the bilayer core. However, polar headgroups were not disordered, and diffusion of membrane components in the polar headgroup region was not altered. 相似文献

P-glycoprotein is a membrane protein involved in the phenomenon of multidrug resistance. Its activity and transport function have been largely characterized by various biochemical studies and a low-resolution image has been obtained by electron microscopy. Obtaining a high-resolution structure is, however, still remote due to the inherent difficulties in the experimental determination of membrane protein structures. We present here a three-dimensional (3D) atomic model of P-glycoprotein in absence of ATP. This model was obtained using a combination of computational techniques including comparative modeling and rigid body dynamics simulations that embody all available cysteine disulfide crosslinking data characterizing the whole protein in absence of ATP. The model features rather well most of the experimental interresidue distances derived both in the transmembrane domains and in the nucleotide binding domains. The model is also in good agreement with electron microscopy data, particularly in terms of size and topology. It features a large cavity detected in the protein core into which seven ligands were successfully docked. Their predicted affinity correlates well with experimental values. Locations of docked ligands compare favorably with those suggested by cysteine-scanning data. The finding of different positions both for a single ligand and for different ligands corroborates the experimental evidence indicating the existence of multiple drug binding sites. The interactions identified between P-glycoprotein and the docked ligands reveal that different types of interactions such as H-bonds, pi-pi and cation-pi interactions occur in agreement with a recently proposed pharmacophore model of P-glycoprotein ligands. Furthermore, the model also displays a lateral opening located in the transmembrane domains connecting the lipid bilayer to the central cavity. This feature supports rather well the commonly admitted mechanism of substrate uptake from the lipid bilayer. We propose that this 3D model may be an important tool to understand the structure-function relationship of P-glycoprotein. 相似文献

Temperature-dependent lateral diffusion of phospholipids in hepatic microsomes as studied by 31P-NMR
The 81 MHz 31P-NMR spectra of isolated rabbit liver microsomes before and after trypsin treatment and of the total microsomal lipid extract were recorded in the 4-40 degrees C temperature range. In both treated and untreated microsomes at 4 degrees C most of the phospholipids gave rise to typical bilayer spectra whereas the lineshape of the latter in the 25-37 degrees C temperature range becomes narrower and more symmetrical. Quasi-elastic light scattering (QELS) measurements revealed that the microsomes maintain their size in the temperature region of the measurements. We interpret the lineshape changes for untreated microsomes above 25 degrees C as being determined by lateral diffusion. This is supported by lineshape calculations as a function of the lateral diffusion coefficient. The different spectral behavior of enzymatically active (untreated) and inactive (treated) microsomes suggests that the membrane proteins influence the lateral diffusion of the phospholipids. 相似文献
