For a large smooth particle with charges at the surface, the electrophoretic mobility is proportional to the zeta potential, which is related to the charge density by the Gouy-Chapman theory of the diffuse double layer. This classical model adequately describes the dependence of the electrophoretic mobility of phospholipid vesicles on charge density and salt concentration, but it is not applicable to most biological cells, for which new theoretical models have been developed. We tested these new models experimentally by measuring the effect of UO2++ on the electrophoretic mobility of model membranes and human erythrocytes in 0.15 M NaCl at pH 5. We used UO2++ for these studies because it should adsorb specifically to the bilayer surface of the erythrocyte and should not change the density of fixed charges in the glycocalyx. Our experiments demonstrate that it forms high-affinity complexes with the phosphate groups of several phospholipids in a bilayer but does not bind significantly to sialic acid residues. As observed previously, UO2++ adsorbs strongly to egg phosphatidylcholine (PC) vesicles: 0.1 mM UO2++ changes the zeta potential of PC vesicles from 0 to +40 mV. It also has a large effect on the electrophoretic mobility of vesicles formed from mixtures of PC and the negative phospholipid phosphatidylserine (PS): 0.1 mM UO2++ changes the zeta potential of PC/PS vesicles (10 mol % PS) from -13 to +37 mV. In contrast, UO2++ has only a small effect on the electrophoretic mobility of either vesicles formed from mixtures of PC and the negative ganglioside GM1 or erythrocytes: 0.1 mM UO2++ changes the apparent zeta potential of PC/GM1 vesicles (17 mol % GM1) from -11 to +5 mV and the apparent zeta potential of erythrocytes from -12 to -4 mV. The new theoretical models suggest why UO2++ has a small effect on PC/GM1 vesicles and erythrocytes. First, large groups (e.g., sugar moieties) protruding from the surface of the PC/GM1 vesicles and erythrocytes exert hydrodynamic drag. Second, charges at the surface of a particle (e.g., adsorbed UO2++) exert a smaller effect on the mobility than charges located some distance from the surface (e.g., sialic acid residues). 相似文献

The zeta potential of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells has been studied. Zeta potential was measured by microelectrophoresis with a Laser Zee meter model 500. Haploid (a and α) and diploid cells were tested and their zeta potential was found to be comparable. The influence of agents such as CaCl2, NaCl, carboxymethylcellulose, Al2(SO4)3 and cationic starch, on the zeta potential of cells has been studied. Moreover, zeta potential measurement has been used for improvement of cell immobilization by adhesion on sawdust. 相似文献

We synthesized and characterized a series of zwitterionic, acetate-terminated, quaternized amine diacyl lipids (AQ). These lipids have an inverted headgroup orientation as compared to naturally occurring phosphatidylcholine (PC) lipids; the cationic group is anchored at the membrane interface, while the anionic group extends into the aqueous phase. AQ lipids preferentially interact with highly polarizable anions (ClO(4)(-)) over less polarizable ions (Cl(-)), in accord with the Hofmeister series, as measured by the change in zeta potential of AQ liposomes. Conversely, AQ lipids have a weaker association with calcium than do PC lipids. The transition temperatures (Tm) of the AQ lipids are similar to the Tm observed with phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) lipids of the same chain length. AQ lipids form large lipid sheets after heating and sonication; however, in the presence of cholesterol (Chol), these lipids form stable liposomes that encapsulate carboxyfluorescein. The AQ:Chol liposomes retain their contents in the presence of serum at 37°C, and when injected intravenously into mice, their organ biodistribution is similar to that observed with PC:Chol liposomes. AQ lipids demonstrate that modulating the headgroup charge orientation significantly alters the biophysical properties of liposomes. For the drug carrier field, these new materials provide a non-phosphate containing zwitterlipid for the production of lipid vesicles. 相似文献

In this study the anticancer activity of paclitaxel-loaded nano-liposomes on glioma cell lines was investigated. Soya phosphatidylcholine:cholesterol (SPC:Chol), hydrogenated soya phosphatidylcholine:cholesterol (HSPC:Chol) or dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine:cholesterol (DPPC:Chol) in 1:1?mole ratio were used to prepare ethanol-based proliposomes. Following hydration of proliposomes, the size of resulting vesicles was subsequently reduced to nanometer scale via probe-sonication. The resulting formulations were characterized in terms of size, zeta potential and morphology of the vesicles, and entrapment efficiency of paclitaxel (PX) as well as the final pH of the preparations. DPPC-liposomes entrapped 35–92% of PX compared to 27–74% and 25–60% entrapped by liposomes made from SPC and HSPC formulations respectively, depending on drug concentration. The entrapment efficiency of liposomes was dependent on the lipid bilayer properties and ability of PX to modify surface charge of the vesicles. In vitro cytotoxicity studies revealed that PX-liposome formulations were more selective at inhibiting the malignant cells. The cytotoxicity of PX-liposomes was dependent on their drug-entrapment efficiency. This study has shown PX-liposomes generated from proliposomes have selective activity against glioma cell lines, and the synthetic DPPC phospholipid was most suitable for maximized drug entrapment and highest activity against the malignant cells in vitro. 相似文献

Polysialoganglioside GT1b, a keratinocyte membrane glycosphingolipid, inhibits normal keratinocyte adhesion and migration on a fibronectin matrix. The specificity of the inhibition for cells plated on a fibronectin matrix and competition of GT1b inhibition with peptide RGDS suggest that GT1b abrogates the α5β1/fibronectin interaction. We examined the effects of GT1b on the adhesion and migration of keratinocyte-derived cell lines and correlated GT1b responsiveness and α5β1integrin expression. GT1b (5 nM) significantly inhibited migration of normal human keratinocytes, immortalized keratinocytes, and squamous cell carcinoma SCC12F2 cells on fibronectin, but not on collagen I. Concentrations as high as 5 μM had no effect on SCC13 or HaCaT cells. Likewise, GT1b inhibited fibronectin-dependent cell adhesion of normal human keratinocytes, immortalized keratinocytes, and SCC12F2 cells, but had no effect on SCC13 or HaCaT cells. Flow cytometric and Western immunoblot analysis of integrin expression showed significantly decreased α5and β1integrin expression in SCC13 and HaCaT cells compared to normal keratinocytes, immortalized keratinocytes, and SCC12F2 cells. Incubation with TGF-β1 increased α5β1integrin expression and induced responsiveness to GT1b in HaCaT cells. These data imply that GT1b “response” requires sufficient expression of α5β1and further suggest that the mechanism of the inhibitory effect of GT1b involves GT1b/α5β1interaction. 相似文献

1H-NMR study of the location and motion of ubiquinones in perdeuterated phosphatidylcholine bilayers
Ubiquinones (n = 1,2,3,4,7,9,10) and ubiquinols (n = 1,2,3,4,10) were incorporated into ordinary (protonated) or perdeuterated dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine vesicles and were found to have significant local molecular motion. The motion of the quinone ring, as judged from the linewidth of the OCH3 proton resonances, decreased in longer-chain ubiquinones. Minimum values for the transverse mobility (flip-flop rates) of ubiquinones-1,2,3,4,10, measured with the aid of lanthanide shift reagents, suggest that they are all able to function in a protonmotive ‘Q cycle’ during electron transport. As the length of the side chain increases beyond 1 isoprenoid unit, the quinone/quinol ring tends to be deeper in the outer monolayer of small sonicated vesicles and in both monolayers of larger freeze-thaw vesicles, but little or no change in depth is observed in the inner monolayer of small vesicles. The ubiquinol rings are closer to the membrane surface than are the ubiquinone rings. For side chain n = 9 or 10, a second resonance from the OCH3 protons of ubiquinones and ubiquinols in vesicles appears in the 1H-NMR spectrum. This is due to the presence of two types of vesicles with different ubiquinone/phospholipid ratios. 相似文献

The effects of defined acyl chain, unilamellar phosphatidylcholine vesicles on the development of cultured embryonic chick muscle was studied. An inhibition of myoblast fusion was observed when vesicles were incubated with cells below the vesicle gel-liquid crystalline phase transition temperature (Tc). This inhibition could be at least partially reversed by culturing the vesicletreated cells above the Tc of vesicles. Evidence supporting adhesion as the mechanism of vesiclecell interaction mediating inhibition of myoblast fusion was derived from scanning electron microscopy (SEM) which demonstrated the presence of vesicle-like particles on the cell membrane under conditions in which myoblast fusion was inhibited. Pretrypsinization of myoblasts before their incubation with vesicles prevented this fusion inhibition, suggesting that vesicles may interact with cell membrane proteins which are involved in the myoblast fusion and/or recognition process. 相似文献

Membrane-active peptides comprise a large group of toxins used in the defense and offense systems of all organisms including plants and humans. They act on diverse targets including microorganisms and mammalian cells, but the factors that determine their target cell selectivity are not yet clear. Here, we tested the role of peptide length and preassembly on the ability of diastereomeric cationic antimicrobial peptides to discriminate among bacteria, erythrocytes, and fungal cells, by using peptides with variable lengths (13, 16, and 19 amino acids long) and their covalently linked pentameric bundles. All the bundles expressed similar potent antifungal activity (minimal inhibitory concentration of 0.2-0.3 microM) and high antimicrobial activity. Hemolytic activity was also observed at concentrations higher than those required for antifungal activity. In contrast, all the monomers showed length-dependent antimicrobial activity, were less active toward bacteria and fungi, and were devoid of hemolytic activity. BIAcore biosensor experiments revealed a approximately 300-fold increase in peptide-membrane binding affinity between the 13- and 19-residue monomers toward zwitterionic (egg phosphatidylcholine (PC)/egg spingomyelin (SM)/cholesterol) vesicles. All the monomeric peptides display a similar high affinity to negatively charged (E. coli phosphatidylethanolamine (PE)/egg phosphatidylglycerol (PG)) vesicles regardless of their length. In contrast, irrespective of the size of the monomeric subunit, all the bundles bind irreversibly and strongly disrupt both PC/SM/cholesterol and PE/PG membranes. Attenuated total reflectance Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy revealed that peptide assembly also affects structure as observed by an increased alpha-helical and beta-sheet content in membranes and enhances acyl chain disruption of PC/cholesterol. The correlation between the antibacterial activity and ability to depolarize the transmembrane potential of E. coli spheroplasts, as well as the ability to induce calcein release from vesicles, suggests that the bacterial membrane is their target. The data demonstrate that preassembly of cationic diastereomeric antimicrobial peptides is an essential factor in their membrane targeting. 相似文献

As GPR30 has been implicated in mediating cancer cell proliferation, this study aimed to examine the antitumor effect of the GPR30 antagonist G15 in human oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). G15 induced dose-dependent cytotoxicity, apoptosis and G2/M cell cycle arrest in a panel of OSCC cells. The results showed that G15 could inhibit the growth of the oral cancer cells with IC50 value 11.2 μM for SCC4, 15.6 μM for SCC9, and 7.8 μM for HSC-3, respectively. Flow cytometric analysis and Comet assay indicated that G15 suppressed the viability of SCC4 and HSC-3 cells by inducing apoptosis and G2/M arrest. In addition, G15 down regulated the expression of Akt, cell cycle-related proteins, and mitogen-activated protein kinases, but increased the levels of LC3B-II and the accumulation of autophagosomes. Inhibition of autophagy by chloroquine does not affect the G15-induced apoptosis in SCC4 cells. Mechanistic evidence indicated that the antiproliferative effect was mediated through the downregulation of cdc2, cdc25c and NF-κB expression. Taken together, our findings suggest the potential of G15 in treating OSCC. 相似文献

The reactivity of the acidic glycolipid cerebroside sulfate (CBS) with antibody was studied as a function of its lipid environment in vesicles and of its ceramide composition. The lipid environment was varied by using phosphatidylcholine of varying chain length with cholesterol in a phosphatidylcholine:cholesterol:cerebroside sulfate molar ratio to glycolipid of 1:0.75:0.1. The ceramide structure of CBS was varied by using synthetic forms containing palmitic acid, lignoceric acid, or the corresponding alpha-hydroxy fatty acids. Reactivity with antibody was determined by measuring complement-mediated lysis of the vesicles containing a spin-label marker, tempocholine chloride. The data were analyzed by a theoretical model which gives relative values for the dissociation constant and concentration of antibodies within the antiserum which are able to bind to the glycolipid. If the phosphatidylcholine chain length was increased, increasing the bilayer thickness, only a small population of high-affinity antibodies were able to bind to cerebroside sulfate, suggesting decreased surface exposure of the glycosyl head group. A larger population of lower affinity antibodies were able to bind to it in a shorter chain length phosphatidylcholine environment. However, if the chain length of the cerebroside sulfate was increased, it could be recognized by more antibodies of lower affinity than the short chain length form, suggesting that an increase in chain length of the glycolipid increased surface exposure. Hydroxylation of the fatty acid inhibited antibody binding; only a smaller population of higher affinity antibodies was able to bind to the hydroxy fatty acid forms.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The current study aims to develop a stable pH-sensitive drug delivery system. First, cleavable polyethylene glycol-α-tocopherol hemisuccinate (PEG-THS) was synthesized. Conventional pH-sensitive vesicles composed of the Tris salt of α-tocopherol hemisuccinate (THST) were then prepared using the detergent removal technique. The vesicles had a mean particle size of (163.8 ± 5.5) nm and a zeta potential of −74.5 ± 6.4 mV. The THST vesicles were then modified using PEG-THS or uncleavable PEG-cholesterol (PEG-CHOL) (THST/PEG-lipids, 100:6 molar ratio). The mean vesicle particle size and absolute zeta potential decreased with increasing PEG-THS proportion. When the pH was decreased, the vesicle particle size and calcein release rate increased. The THST vesicles were initially Ca2+-unstable but exhibited significantly improved stability after modification with PEG-THS, especially at PEG-lipid ratios above 6%. Incubation in an acid serum increased the calcein release rate of conventional THST vesicles to 45 ± 1.98% at 10 min. However, the release rate of the PEG-CHOL vesicles remained low. The calcein release rate of PEG-THS vesicles was between those of conventional and PEG-CHOL-V. Therefore, PEG-THS can protect vesicles in serum and reconstitute their pH sensitivity in acidic conditions. Cleavable PEG-THS can be used in stable pH-sensitive preparations without loss of pH sensitivity. Free calcein and conventional vesicles eliminated from the plasma soon after injection, as well as the half-life (t1/2) and area under the curve of PEG-THS-V encapsulating calcein, were dramatically increased. This phenomenon indicates that the use of PEG-lipid derivatives has gained a favorably long circulation effect in mice.Key words: cleavage, long circulation, PEG-α-tocopherol hemisuccinate, pH-sensitive, vesicles 相似文献

Human erythrocytes, incubated with sonicated dispersions of phosphatidylcholine, cholesterol and saturated straight-chain alcohols (C16-C18) develop stiff, rod-shaped, hemoglobin-containing membrane projections within 120 min. The number of these ‘rods’ varies (1–3 per cell), they reach a length of up to 14 μm (twice the cell diameter) and a thickness of 0.3–1.0 μm. ‘Rods’ may be separated from ‘residual cells’ by shear flow and centrifugation without severe hemolysis. Lipid analyses carried out on residual cells and rods indicate lateral segregation of the phospholipids of the outer leaf of the membrane lipid bilayer (phosphatidylcholine and sphingomyelin) and of the alcohol applied. Phosphatidylcholine accumulates in the residual cells, sphingomyelin and the alcohol in the rods. No differences in membrane protein patterns were observed between rods and residual cells. The rod-shape is dependent on the presence of the alcohol, extraction of the alcohol converts rods into hemoglobin-containing spheres without lysis. The formation of rods, which is indicative of a lateral phase separation, is discussed in terms of lipid-lipid interactions and with respect to parameters determining the shape of cells. 相似文献

The interaction of synthetic peptides corresponding to the signal sequences of Escherichia coli alkaline phosphatase: Lys-Gln-Ser-Thr-Ile-Ala-Leu-Ala-Leu-Leu-Pro-Leu-Leu-Phe-Thr-Pro-Val-Thr-Lys-Ala-OCH3, chicken lysozyme: Met-Lys-Ser-Leu-Leu-Ile-Leu-Val-Leu-Cys(Bzl)-Phe-Leu-Pro-Leu-Ala-Ala-Leu-Gly-OCH2-C6H5 and variant of the chicken lysozyme signal sequence with a charged residue in the hydrophobic region: Lys-Leu-Leu-Ile-Ala-Leu-Val-Leu-Lys-Phe-Leu-Pro-Leu-Ala-Ala-Leu-Gly-OCH3 with model membranes of brain phosphatidylserine (PS) and egg phosphatidylcholine (PC) have been investigated by 90° light scattering and fluorescence spectroscopy. Our results indicate that the association of signal peptides with model membranes results in extensive perturbation of the lipid bilayer so as to cause fusion of PS vesicles and aggregation of PC vesicles. The vesicles are also rendered permeable to hydrophilic molecules like carboxyfluorescein. The variant peptide with the lysine residue in the hydrophobic region also has the ability to perturb lipid bilayers of model membranes. 相似文献

Phosphodiester and phosphorothioate oligonucleotide condensation and preparation of antisense nanoparticles 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Protamine is a cationic peptide with a molecular mass of approx. 4000 Da that is able to condense DNA. In the present study it was used to complex antisense oligonucleotides (ODNs) and to form solid particles with initial diameters of 90-150 nm. The reaction was very rapid and occurred by simple mixing of diluted solutions of the polycation with the oligonucleotide. The aggregation was dependent on the oligonucleotide chain length and the protamine/ODN mass ratio. Particle formation required a minimal chain length of nine nucleotides and a mass ratio of 0.5:1. The particle surface charge and the number of particles depended on the mass ratio. With increasing amounts of the peptide, the number of particles and the zeta potential increased. Both negatively and positively charged particles improved the stability of oligonucleotides against DNase I digestion. Above a mass ratio of 2.5:1 no degradation was found. The uptake of unbound rhodamine-labelled ODNs and its complexes with protamine was determined with Vero cells under in vitro cell culture conditions at 37 degrees C and 4 degrees C. At 37 degrees C the cellular uptake increased with increasing mass ratio. The internalized oligonucleotides were localized in the cytoplasm and in the nucleus of the cells. When Vero cells were treated with these samples at 4 degrees C for 4 h, no fluorescence could be detected inside the cells. Therefore, our data indicate an energy dependent endocytotic uptake mechanism. In contrast, spermine and spermidine, which are also known condensation agents, did not aggregate with oligonucleotides into nanoparticles under the same conditions. 相似文献

1. Phase transitions in sonicated (vesicles) and unsonicated liposomes composed of various synthetic phosphatidylcholines are monitored using differential scanning calorimetry and 31P NMR. 2. The temperature (Tc), heat content and width of the phase transition are comparable in both vesicles and liposomes prepared from 1,2-dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine and 1,2-dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine. In vesicles composed of a (1 : 1) mixture of 1,2-dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine and 1,2-dioleoyl phosphatidylcholine phase separation occurs as in the bilayers of the unsonicated liposomes. 3. The linewidth of the 31P resonances in vesicles is not greatly dependent upon the fatty acid composition when the lipids are in the disordered liquid crystalline state (above Tc). When the lipids are in the gel state (below Tc), however, there is a marked increase in linewidth, demonstrating a reduction in motion of the phosphate group. 4. The ratio of the amounts of phosphatidylcholine present in the outside and inside monolayter of the vesicle membrane was determined with 31P NMR using Nd3+ as a non-permeating shift reagent. 5. The outside/inside ratio is dependent upon the hydrocarbon chain length. Increasing chain length gives a lower outside/inside ratio and a larger vesicle. Introduction of cis or trans double bonds in the chain influences the outside/inside ratio slightly. 6. The incorporation of cholesterol decreases the outside/inside ratio and increases the size of 1,2-dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine vesicles. The cholesterol concentration in the outside and inside monolayer is approximately the same. The size of the 1,2-dioleoyl phosphatidylcholine vesicles is also increased by cholesterol incorporation but the outside/inside distribution is also increased, especially between 30 and 50 mol% cholesterol. In these vesicles cholesterol is asymmetrically distributed and strongly prefers the inside monolayer of the vesicle. 相似文献

To obtain cationic liposomes of which affinity to negatively charged membranes can be controlled by temperature, cationic liposomes consisting of 3beta-[N-(N', N'-dimethylaminoethane)carbamoyl]cholesterol and dioleoylphosphatidylethanolamine were modified with poly(N-acryloylpyrrolidine), which is a thermosensitive polymer exhibiting a lower critical solution temperature (LCST) at ca. 52 degrees C. The unmodified cationic liposomes did not change its zeta potential between 20-60 degrees C. The polymer-modified cationic liposomes revealed much lower zeta potential values below the LCST of the polymer than the unmodified cationic liposomes. However, their zeta potential increased significantly above this temperature. The unmodified cationic liposomes formed aggregates and fused intensively with anionic liposomes consisting of egg yolk phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidic acid in the region of 20-60 degrees C, due to the electrostatic interaction. In contrast, aggregation and fusion of the polymer-modified cationic liposomes with the anionic liposomes were strongly suppressed below the LCST. However, these interactions were enhanced remarkably above the LCST. In addition, the polymer-modified cationic liposomes did not cause leakage of calcein from the anionic liposomes below the LCST, but promoted the leakage above this temperature as the unmodified cationic liposomes did. Temperature-induced conformational change of the polymer chains from a hydrated coil to a dehydrated globule might affect the affinity of the polymer-modified cationic liposomes to the anionic liposomes. 相似文献

The translational diffusion of pyrene, pyrene butyric acid and pyrene decanoic acid has been determined in phosphatidylcholine bilayers of different chain length and under pressure up to 200 bars. In the liquid crystalline phase and at a given temperature the diffusion decreases with increasing chain length. At a constant reduced temperature, T
red (about 10 K above the transition temperature), long chain lipids exhibit the fastest diffusion which is in disagreement with hydrodynamic models but favours free volume models for diffusion in lipid bilayers. The volume of activation, V
act, calculated from the decrease of the diffusion coefficient with pressure, ln D/P, depends on lipid chain length. V
act decreases with decreasing lipid chain length at a given temperature, T=65°C, and increases at the reduced temperature. These results are again in agreement with the dependence of the diffusion on lipid chain length and therefore with the free volume model.Abbreviations DLPC

We studied the effect of fetal calf serum and serum protein fractions on the interaction of phospholipid vesicles consisting of phosphatidylcholine, cholesterol and dicetylphosphate (molar ratio 7 : 2 : 1), with rat liver parenchymal cells in a primary monolayer culture. During incubation of such vesicles with fetal calf serum part of the labeled phosphatidylcholine is transferred to a lipoprotein particle similar to the one we identified previously as a derivative of high density lipoprotein (Scherphof, G., Roerdink, F.H., Waite, M. and Parks, J. (1978) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 542, 296–307). When the particle thus formed is incubated with the cells a transfer of the phospholipid label to the cells is observed. When vesicles are incubated with the cells in presence of serum such lipoprotein-mediated lipid transfer may conceivably contribute to the total lipid uptake observed. However, we found that the presence of fetal calf serum in the culture medium greatly diminished rather than increased the total transfer of liposomal lipid to the cells. Also bovine serum albumin and bovine β-globulins reduced this transfer, although to a lesser extent than whole serum. α-Globulins, on the other hand, were as effective as complete serum in reducing the uptake of liposomal phospholipid. A γ-globulin fraction failed to exhibit any effect on the uptake of [14C]phosphatidylcholine by the cells.All protein fractions which were able to inhibit cellular uptake of liposomal phospholipid were shown to bind to the phospholipid vesicles. Furthermore, lipid vesicles preincubated with fetal calf serum and then separated from it showed reduced transfer of labeled phosphatidylcholine to parenchymal cells.These observations were taken to suggest that the diminished uptake of liposomal lipid may be caused by a modification of the liposomal surface membrane as a result of the binding of certain serum proteins.

The strong interaction of D-beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase with phospholipid monomolecular films is demonstrated by the surface pressure increase of a film compressed up to 33 mN/m. Although the D-beta-hydroxybutyrate apodehydrogenase was able to penetrate many phospholipid monolayers, it interacted preferentially with negatively charged monolayers such as those made from diphosphatidylglycerol. The weakest interaction was found with phosphatidylcholine, which is the reactivating phospholipid for the enzyme. These interactions were dependent on the phospholipid chain length, ionic strength, and pH. At basic pH the apoenzyme lost its specificity for negatively charged phospholipids, suggesting the deprotonation of a cationic amino acid residue of the enzyme polypeptide chain. The charge effects are in agreement with results obtained using phospholipid vesicles. Beside the electrostatic interactions, the influence of phospholipid chain length and the ionic strength indicate that D-beta-hydroxybutyrate apodehydrogenase penetrates into the hydrophobic part of the lipid interface. 相似文献
