Abstract: | Short- and long-chain 1-O-alkyl-2-acylaminodeoxyglycero- and alkoxy-alkylphosphonic acid p-nitrophenyl esters were synthesized as inhibitors for analytical and mechanistic studies on lipolytic enzymes. The respective compounds contain perylene or nitrobenzoxadiazole as reporter fluorophores covalently bound to the omega-ends of the respective 2-acylamino- and alkoxy- residues. Their inhibitory effects on the activities of three selected lipases showing different substrate preferences were determined, including the lipases from Rhizopus oryzae, Pseudomonas species, and Pseudomonas cepacia. R. oryzae lipase reacted much better with the single-chain inhibitors than the two-chain deoxyglycerolipids. In contrast, P. cepacia lipase was inactivated by perylene-containing two-chain phosphonate (XXII) to a larger extent as compared to the other inhibitors whereas Pseudomonas species lipase interacted efficiently and without any preferences with all inhibitors used in this study. In summary, the different lipases show a very characteristic reactivity pattern not only with respect to triacylglycerol substrates but also to their structurally related inhibitors. Thus, the novel phosphonates might be useful tools not only for analysis and discrimination of known lipolytic enzymes but also for discovery of yet unknown lipases/esterases in biological samples. |
