Abstract
Lipases were purified from delipidated pyloric ceca powder of two New Zealand-sourced fish, Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) and hoki (Macruronus novaezelandiae), by fractional precipitation with polyethylene glycol 1000, followed by affinity chromatography using cholate-Affi-Gel 102, and gel filtration on Sephacryl S-300 HR. For the first time, in-polyacrylamide gel activity of purified fish lipases against 4-methylumbelliferyl butyrate has been demonstrated. Calcium ions and sodium cholate were absolutely necessary both for lipase stability in the gel and for optimum activity against caprate and palmitate esters of p-nitrophenol. A single protein band was present in native polyacrylamide gels for both salmon and hoki final enzyme preparations. Under denaturing conditions, electrophoretic analysis revealed two bands of 79.6 and 54.9 kDa for salmon lipase. It is proposed that these bands correspond to an uncleaved and a final form of the enzyme. One band of 44.6 kDa was seen for hoki lipase. pI values of 5.8±0.1 and 5.7±0.1 were obtained for the two salmon lipase forms. The hoki lipase had a pI of 5.8±0.1. Both lipases had the highest activity at 35°C, were thermally labile, had a pH optimum of 8-8.5, and were more acid stable compared to other fish lipases studied to date. Both enzymes were inhibited by the organophosphate paraoxon. Chinook salmon and hoki lipases showed good stability in several water-immiscible solvents. The enzymes had very similar amino acid composition to mammalian carboxyl ester lipases and one other fish digestive lipase. The salmon enzyme was an overall better catalyst based on its higher turnover number (3.7±0.3 vs. 0.71±0.05 s(-1) for the hoki enzyme) and lower activation energy (2.0±0.4 vs. 7.6±0.8 kcal/mol for the hoki enzyme) for the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl caprate. The salmon and hoki enzymes are homologous with mammalian carboxyl ester lipases.

Abstract
L-Threonine dehydrogenase (TDH) from Escherichia coli is rapidly inactivated and develops a new absorbance peak at 347 nm when incubated with N-ethyl-5-phenylisoxazolium-3'-sulfonate (Woodward's reagent K, WRK). The cofactors, NAD+ or NADH (1.5 mM), provide complete protection against inactivation; L-threonine (60 mM) is approximately 50% as effective. Tryptic digestion of WRK-modified TDH followed by HPLC fractionation (pH 6.2) yields four 340-nm-absorbing peptides, two of which are absent from enzyme incubated with WRK and NAD+. Peptide I has the sequence TAICGTDVH (TDH residues 35-43), whereas peptide II is TAICGTDVHIY (residues 35-45). Peptides not protected are TMLDTMNHGGR (III, residues 248-258) and NCRGGRTHLCR (IV, residues 98-108). Absorbance spectra of these WRK-peptides were compared with WRK adducts of imidazole, 2-hydroxyethanethiolate, and acetate. Peptides III and IV have pH-dependent lambda max values (340-350 nm), consistent with histidine modification. Peptide I has pH-independent lambda max (350 nm) indicating that a thiol is modified. WRK, therefore, does not react specifically with carboxyl groups in this enzyme, but rather modifies Cys-38 in the active site of TDH; modification of His-105 and His-255 does not affect enzyme activity. These results are the first definitive proof of WRK modifying cysteine and histidine residues of a protein and show that enzyme inactivation by WRK associated with the appearance of new absorptivity at 340-350 nm does not establish modification of aspartate or glutamate residues, as has been assumed in numerous earlier reports.

Abstract
The abrupt transition from carbohydrate to fat as the main energy source that occurs at birth is not matched by commensurate endogenous fat-digesting capacity in the newborn. Newborn infants are, however, able to digest fat efficiently through the activities of gastric lipase and the exogenous digestive lipase of human milk, which compensate for the low activity of pancreatic lipase. Fat absorption is well-developed at birth and is commensurate with the high fat intake of the infant. Tissue uptake of dietary fat is also adequate, based on sufficient lipoprotein lipase (above 26 to 27 weeks' gestation) and rapid postnatal increase of lecithin:cholesterol acyl transferase, the enzymes that regulate tissue uptake of circulatory lipoprotein triglyceride and cholesterol.

Abstract
The enzymatic basis for cod digestive lipolysis has been investigated. Lipase activity was found in aqueous extracts from pyloric caeca as well as in pancreatic tissue surrounding the caeca and the bile duct. A bile salt-dependent lipase (BSDL) was purified from either defatted powder of cod pyloric caeca or aqueous pancreatic extracts by combined affinity chromatography on cholate-Sepharose and gel filtration on Sephacryl S-200 HR. By SDS-PAGE analysis the molecular weight of purified cod BSDL was estimated to 60 kDa. The enzyme was totally dependent on bile salts for hydrolysis of insoluble fatty acid esters. Antiserum raised against purified cod BSDL reacted specifically with selected mammalian pancreatic BSDLs by Western blot analysis. Results presented in this paper strongly suggest that the bile salt-dependent lipase is the only pancreatic enzyme involved in lipid digestion in cod. The enzyme has been characterized and compared to human pancreatic BSDL with respect to substrate specificity, temperature- and pH-dependence and inhibitors. Both soluble and insoluble fatty acid esters were hydrolysed and the enzyme was 1,3-specific in hydrolysis of triolein. The enzyme was inhibited by di-isopropyl fluorophosphate and phenyl boronic acid, but not significantly by phenyl methyl sulfonyl fluoride. The cod BSDL is probably homologous to mammalian pancreatic BSDLs.

Abstract
The effect of a series of synthetic carbamates on the human (milk or pancreatic) bile-salt-dependent lipase (cholesterol esterase) was examined. N-isopropyl-O-phenyl, N-methyl-O-phenyl, N-butyl-(4-nitrophenyl), N-phenyl-(4-nitrophenyl), N-butyl-N-methyl and N-pentyl-O-phenyl carbamates were inhibitors of the enzyme activity, while O-isopropyl-N-phenyl, O-methyl-N-phenyl, O-benzyl-N-isopropyl and O-cyclohexyl-N-phenyl carbamates were not even recognized by the enzyme. The N-alkyl chain length is essential for the enzyme inhibition and N-butyl-(4-nitrophenyl) or N-pentyl-O-phenyl carbamates are more potent inhibitors than N-methyl-O-phenyl or N-isopropyl carbamates. The inhibition by reactive carbamates fits the criteria for mechanism-based inhibition: the inhibition is first-order with time, shows saturation kinetics with increasing carbamate concentration and leads to an inactive stoichiometric enzyme-inhibitor complex; the enzyme activity can be protected by a competitive inhibitor. Evidence is shown that the enzymatic nucleophilic attack of carbamates is directed at the carbonyl carbon atom and not the nitrogen atom. The inhibition of bile-salt-dependent lipase does not occur consecutive to the formation of a reactive isocyanate derivative of carbamate but via a tetrahedral intermediate involving essential residues implicated in the enzyme catalytic site. This intermediate evolves by liberation of alcohol (or phenol) and formation of an inactive carbamyl enzyme. Among the carbamates tested, N-butyl-N-methyl-(4-nitrophenyl) carbamate specifically inhibits the bile-salt-dependent lipase; the release of 4-nitrophenol from this carbamate is directly proportional to the enzyme inhibition and it may be defined as a specific active-site titrator for bile-salt-dependent lipases.

Abstract
Two hundred eighty-one milk samples collected from Zaïrian nonprivileged, undernourished mothers, in series of nine groups from 1 month to 18 months after parturition, and 66 milk samples collected from French privileged mothers in series of four groups from 2 days to 16 months postpartum, were analyzed for their lactose, lipid and protein contents. In addition, the activity of bile salt-dependent lipase (esterase), which may play an important role in the newborn infant's lipids digestion, was measured. After the first month postpartum, independent of the nutritional state of the mother, sugar and protein concentrations were identical. Lipid content of French mothers' milk was lower in transitional milk, but appeared constant in mature milk with an average value of 29.1 +/- 5.8 mg/mL of milk. In Zaïrian mothers' milk, the lipid content of mature milk plateaued at around 50-55 mg/mL independent of the stage of lactation. Bile salt-dependent lipase showed constant esterase activity within the lactation stage in privileged mothers' milk, but decreased by almost 80-90% during the first four months of lactation in undernourished mothers. The data suggest that milk from nonprivileged mothers may lose some of its ability to hydrolyze milk lipid esters, which could also be of consequence to the infant's normal growth in view of its effect on the esters of the lipid-soluble vitamins A, E and D.

Abstract
To determine the active site residue, human milk bile-salt stimulated lipase (BSSL) was labelled with [3H]diisopropyl fluorophosphate (DFP). Partial sequence analysis of cyanogen bromide fragments (a total of 146 residues from 6 peptides) revealed 84% sequence identity with a putative rat lysophospholipase. Sequence analysis of a [3H]DFP-labelled peptide indicated that the active site serine was contained in the sequence Gly-Glu-Ser-Ala-Gly. In addition to similarity with rat lysophospholipase, this sequence showed homology with regions of human butyrylcholinesterase and electric ray acetylcholinesterase (68% identity). It is concluded that these proteins are members of a new supergene family.

Abstract
Three overlapping cDNA clones covering the entire primary sequence of the bile salt stimulated lipase in human milk were isolated from a human breast lambda gt10 cDNA library by screening with the rat pancreatic cholesterol esterase cDNA. Nucleotide sequencing of the cDNA showed that the human milk lipase mRNA encodes a 748-residue protein, including a 23-residue signal peptide. The human milk lipase cDNA is highly homologous to rat pancreatic cholesterol esterase, suggesting that the milk lipase may be identical to the cholesterol esterase in human pancreas. This conclusion was confirmed by isolation and sequencing of the cDNA for human pancreatic cholesterol esterase. Analysis of the sequence for the human cholesterol esterase/milk lipase revealed similarities to other serine esterases in three distinct regions of the protein. These domains may represent the active site triads of these proteins.

Abstract
The bile-salt-dependent lipase from human milk, which catalyzes the hydrolysis of the water-soluble substrate 4-nitrophenyl acetate and the water-insoluble substrate tributyrin, is competitively inhibited by phenyl boronic acid. This inhibitor does not interfere with the interaction of lipase either with the siliconized glass beads/water interface or with the activator bile-salt binding site. The boronic acid binds near or at the active site serine, since modification of this residue by diisopropylphosphofluoridate (DFP) was prevented by phenyl boronic acid. Phenyl boronic acid binds 15-fold as tightly to bile-salt-dependent lipase as does 4-nitrophenyl acetate. Therefore, phenyl boronic acid bears analogy to a substrate rather than to a tetrahedral intermediate analog. Bile salts such as sodium taurocholate which are non-essential activators for the milk lipase activity on water-soluble substrates decrease the Km as well as the enzyme inhibitor dissociation constant (Ki). They have a slight effect on kcat. These results are interpreted in terms of an increase of the stability of the enzyme-substrate tetrahedral intermediate and in general of any transition states for the formation and for the decomposition of these intermediates upon the enzyme bile salts interaction.
