Abstract: | The activity of solubilized plasma membrane ATPase is affectedby the nature of exogenously added molecular species of phospholipids.To examine the role of the polar head group and of the molecularspecies of phospholipids in H+-pumping, the ATPase solubilizedfrom plasma membranes of mung bean (Vigna radiata L.) hypocotylswas reconstituted in liposomes prepared with a variety of phospholipids. The extent of activation of solubilized plasma membrane ATPasedue to the addition of 1-palmitoyl 2-oleoyl-phospholipids (PO-phospholipids)and asolectin decreased in the following order: POPS POPC asolectin POPG > POPE > POPA (see List of Abbreviations). H+-pumpinginto proteoliposomes reconstituted with asolectin and plasmamembrane ATPase was demonstrated by quinacrine fluorescencequenching in the presence of ATP-MgSO4. H+-pumping was inhibitedby VO4 and gramicidin D. When plasma membrane ATPase was reconstitutedin liposomes prepared with various PO-phospholipids, the abilityof PO-phospholipids to support H+-pumping into the proteoliposomesdecreased in the following order: POPG POPS > asolectin POPC. POPE and POPA failed to support any H+-pumping. A remarkablyhigh rate of H+-pumping was observed in proteoliposomes preparedwith 1-saturated 2-unsaturated fatty acids, such as POPC, butH+-pumping could hardly be detected in proteoliposomes preparedwith 1-, 2-unsaturated or 1-, 2-saturated fatty acids, suchas PSPC or DLPC. ATPase activity in proteoliposomes was dependenton the species of PO-phospholipids used for reconstitution anddecreased in the following order: POPS > POPG > POPC asolectin > POPA > POPE. DLPC (see List of Abbreviations)which includes a 1-, 2-unsaturated fatty acid supported onlymarkedly depressed activity. Both H+-pumping and the hydrolysis of ATP by the plasma membraneATPase are strongly affected by the polar head group and compositionof the fatty acyl chain of phospholipids used to prepare liposomesfor reconstitution of the ATPase.
