Abstract
Conjugation of ethylenediaminetetra-acetic acid (EDTA) to methyl tyrosinate generates a chelating peptoid EDTA bis-(methyl tyrosinate), (EBMT). Peroxynitrite-mediated nitration was studied for the free peptoid and its ferric and cupric complexes. The nitration products were monitored by electronic absorption spectroscopy at lambda(max) of 420 nm (mono-nitrated) and 440 nm (di-nitrated). Peak deconvolution was effected by pH manipulation as the mono-nitrated analogue of tyrosine exhibited a bathochromic shift from 365 nm (below its pK(a) of 6.8) to 420 nm. Rates of nitration were: free peptoid <Cu(II) complex <<Fe(III) complex. These results demonstrate the potential of EBMT to act as a radical scavenging chelating peptoid antioxidant.

Abstract
Peroxynitrite-dependent formation of nitrotyrosine has been associated with inactivation of various enzymes and proteins possessing functionally important tyrosines. We have previously reported an enzymatic activity modifying the nitrotyrosine residues in nitrated proteins. Here we are describing a nonenzymatic reduction of nitrotyrosine to aminotyrosine, which depends on heme and thiols. Various heme-containing proteins can mediate the reaction, although the reaction also is catalyzed by heme. The reaction is most effective when vicinal thiols are used as reducing agents, although ascorbic acid also can replace thiols with lesser efficiency. The reaction could be inhibited by (z)-1-[2-(2-aminoethyl)-N-(2-ammonioethyl)amino]diazen-1- ium-1, but not other tested NO donors. HPLC with electrochemical detection analysis of the reaction identified aminotyrosine as the only reaction product. The reduction of nitrotyrosine was most effective at a pH close to physiological and was markedly decreased in acidic conditions. Various nitrophenol compounds also were modified in this reaction. Understanding the mechanism of this reaction could help define the enzymatic modification of nitrotyrosine-containing proteins. Furthermore, this also could assist in understanding the role of nitrotyrosine formation and reversal in the regulation of various proteins containing nitrotyrosine. It also could help define the role of nitric oxide and other reactive species in various disease states.

Abstract
We report the successful, efficient, and large-scale expression of recombinant human procolipase in yeast. Using the full-length cDNA of human procolipase, constructs were made using either the native human procolipase signal peptide sequence or the signal peptide sequence of yeast. These constructs were used to transform yeast cells, and expression was followed. Only minimal expression was seen with the procolipase using the native human signal peptide. Robust secretion of the procolipase occurred when the yeast signal peptide was exchanged for the native signal peptide. Expression yielded more than 30 mg/liter. The recombinant protein was purified from the medium by immunoaffinity chromatography. The highly purified procolipase was free of proteolytic degradation and displayed activity and binding characteristics that were indistinguishable from those of tissue-purified human pancreatic colipase. Expression in yeast cells provides a useful tool for expressing intact, unprocessed recombinant wild-type and mutated procolipase.

Abstract
Porcine colipase, the protein cofactor of pancreatic lipase, was isolated from pancreas freshly collected on animals and from a side fraction from the production of insulin (Novo Nordisk A/S). Samples of purified colipase were analyzed for homogeneity by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RPLC), quantitative N-terminal sequence determination and mass spectrometry. The activating properties of colipase preparations were assayed against tributyrin, triolein or the commercial Intralipid emulsion, in presence of bile salt. Two fractions of colipase with the same specific activity were purified from fresh pancreas. The major fraction (85%) contained one single protein corresponding to fragment 1-93 of the 95-residue form of colipase (procolipase) previously characterized in porcine pancreatic juice. The other fraction (15%) corresponded to fragment 1-91 of procolipase. Also, two fractions of colipase were purified from the side fraction supplied by Novo. These fractions consisted of the 95-residue proform of colipase and of fragment 1-93, respectively, both specifically cleaved at the Ile79-Thr80 peptide bond with partial removal of isoleucine at position 79 and serine at position 78. Procolipase split at the 79-80 bond retained full activity on tributyrin and triolein and on the Intralipid emulsion but the kinetics of hydrolysis of triacylglycerol substrates showed much longer lag periods than those observed with native procolipase. Also, all forms of procolipase split at the 79-80 bond showed one peak in RPLC but their retention time was markedly decreased as compared to that of native procolipase which indicated a weaker hydrophobic binding capacity. The value of the retention time was of the same order of magnitude as that of inactive reduced procolipase. Treatment of native procolipase by pancreatic endopeptidases showed that elastase is likely responsible for specific cleavage at the 79-80 bond of procolipase purified from the Novo extract. Limited proteolysis by trypsin of the proforms of colipase split at the 79-80 bond reduced the lag period. Results presented in this communication provide the first direct evidence showing that the finger-shaped peptide segment between half-cystine residues at positions 69 and 87 is involved in colipase-lipid interaction as previously hypothesized from the three-dimensional structure of the protein.

Abstract
Procolipase is the precursor of colipase, which acts as protein cofactor for the activity of pancreatic lipase. The solution structure of procolipase has been determined by 1H NMR using two- and three-dimensional measurements. The secondary structure determination identified two separate three-stranded beta-sheet regions with concomitant hydrogen bond patterns. The tertiary structure of the protein was determined using 863 non-trivial proton--proton distance constraints, 14 hydrogen bond distance constraints and 55 phi and 25 X1 dihedral constraints. The structure that was obtained from distance geometry and energy refinement contains three highly disordered loops as well as a disordered N- and C-terminal region. The remaining part of the structure is well defined with a root-mean-square deviation (rmsd) relative to the average of 0.09 +/- 0.02 nm for backbone atoms (residues 11-30, 37-50, 57-69, 83-89). The protein comprises two identical domains, each containing a three-strand beta-sheet and two disulfide bonds: a 15-residue region in each domain superimposes with 0.07 nm rmsd, measured on backbone atoms. The solution structure is nearly identical to the crystal structure. It is in agreement with previous NMR data and, in combination with these data, supports the current model of procolipase micelle interaction and the lipase activation by colipase.

Abstract
After a selective cleavage of a lipase/colipase cross-linked complex, the colipase has been shown to be bound to a 5 kDa lipase fragment identified as the C-terminal extremity of the chain extending from residue 403 to the C-terminus (Cys 449). The colipase binding site on lipase is therefore localized in a restricted contact area. Moreover, from sequence comparison of lipase from various species, an acidic residue, Glu 440, is likely to be involved in ion pairing with colipase.

Abstract
Comparison of the primary structures of pancreatic colipases from man, pig, horse and rat shows a high degree of homology between proteins. Fifty-two out of the 95 residues of the polypeptide are identical. All colipases contain 10 half-cystines which are located at invariant positions. The secondary structure of colipases has been predicted from the sequence using the statistical method of Chou and Fasman and the method of Gibrat, Garnier and Robson based on information theory. Predictions indicate that colipases have a low content of alpha-helix and beta-strand structure. The two segments at positions 7-10 and 56-59, assumed to be part of the lipid binding domain, have predicted beta-sheet conformation and should be in close spatial vicinity to each other in the proteins. Four beta-turns are predicted in all colipases at positions 3-6, 46-49, 61-64, and 81-84. They might contribute, with the five disulfide bridges, to a tight packing of the protein molecule. Surface residues and major sequential antigenic determinants of mammalian colipases have been predicted using methods based either on hydrophilicity/hydropathy scales or amino acid mutability. From these studies, it appears that colipases exhibit large conformational homologies. In the absence of data on the tertiary structure of colipase, predictive methods, together with physico-chemical and immunological studies, provide valuable information on the conformation of the protein in relation to the topology of residues involved in the functional and antigenic sites.

Abstract
The interaction of bile salt micelles with the tyrosines of pancreatic colipase was assessed by steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence techniques. Dansyltyrosine fluorescence showed that Tyr-55 was located in the proposed interface recognition site. In support of this claim was a 70 nm blue shift and 4.3-fold quantum yield increase in emission spectrum due to taurodeoxycholate (TDOC) micelle-complex formation. Complex formation also caused a shift in the center of the major lifetime distribution from 11.7 to 15.1 ns, and more than doubled the polarization and anisotropy decay parameters. These data supported an earlier model of colipase-micelle binding that suggested that Tyr-55 was inserted into the interior of the TDOC micelle upon binding (J.C. McIntyre, P. Hundley and W.D. Behnke, Biochem. J. 245 (1987) 821). Identical experiments on a DNS-Tyr-59 derivative of colipase showed that Tyr-59 did not specifically interact with micelles. Moreover, acrylamide quenching data suggest an alteration in the protein environment surrounding DNS-Tyr-59 such that during complex formation, the efficiency of quenching of DNS-Tyr-59 increases.

Abstract
Steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence techniques were used to study dansyltyrosine derivatives of porcine pancreatic colipase. Nitration, reduction, acylation, and dansylation reactions were utilized to synthesize two fluorescently labeled colipases: (o-aminodansyltyrosine 55 porcine colipase) (DNStyr55PC) and o-aminodansyltyrosine 59 porcine colipase (DNStyr59PC). DNStyr55PC was 200% active, while the DNStyr59 derivative maintained 80% activity in a pH stat assay. Emission spectra, lifetime analysis, acrylamide quenching, polarization, and anisotropy decay studies indicated that Tyr55 was located on the solvent-exposed surface of the protein, where the fluorophore experienced free rotation. Identical experiments done on DNStyr59PC indicated that Tyr59 was in a partially buried environment and the motion of the dansyl tyrosine group was hindered. The double-exponential decay of the fluorescence emission of N-acetyl-o-aminodansyltyrosine ethyl ester (DNStyr) and the DNStyr derivatives of colipase was investigated with pH, temperature, solvent, and emission-resolved-lifetime experiments. The existence of excited-state processes was eliminated in both pH and emission-resolved-lifetime experiments, whereas temperature studies indicated either a rotational isomer or a differential solvent quenching mechanism for multiple decay kinetics. These experiments also showed that DNStyr was a sensitive probe of solvent polarity and viscosity, but not of pH.

Abstract
To understand the mechanism by which colipase acts as a protein cofactor for anchoring pancreatic lipase at triacylglycerol/water interface, we have used an immunochemical approach. Ten monoclonal antibodies (Mabs) against porcine pancreatic procolipase were produced. Purified immunoglobulins and Fab fragments were studied for their capacity to inhibit colipase-dependent lipase activity. These studies were carried out by using procolipase, the secretory form of the cofactor, and its trypsin-treated form obtained by removal of the amino terminal pentapeptide by trypsin. Reactivities of Mabs with both forms of the cofactor were also studied by immunoenzymatic methods. Mabs 6.1, 49.20. 75.8, 270.13 and 419.1 were found to inhibit lipolysis by preventing the binding of procolipase or trypsin-treated colipase to the lipid substrate. Mab 72.11 inhibited procolipase binding but had no effect on trypsin-treated colipase. Mab 72.11 reacted with procolipase in ELISA but showed no reactivity with trypsin-treated colipase. Finally, preincubation of Mab 72.11 with porcine procolipase prevented specific cleavage at the Arg5-Gly6 bond by trypsin. It could be concluded, that the five first residues of procolipase are structural elements of the antigenic determinant recognized by Mab 72.11. Results of ELISA additivity tests (cotitrations) further indicated that epitopes for Mabs 6.1, 72.11, 270.13 and 419.1 and for Mabs 49.20 and 75.8 are located in two distinct antigenic regions of the procolipase molecule. It appears then that the lipid binding domain of the pancreatic lipase protein cofactor comprises two regions. The first region corresponds to the amino terminal fragment of the protein. The second region is likely identical with the peptide segment at position 51-59 as previously hypothesized from NMR and spectrophotometric studies. Studies carried out on procolipase chemically modified at tyrosine residues provided evidence that epitopes for Mabs 49.20 and 75.8 are in or close to the region which contains tyrosines at positions 55 and 59, and that the two peptide regions essential for interfacial binding are spatially adjacent in the procolipase and the trypsin-treated form of the cofactor. General conclusions are in accordance with the location of antigenic regions of procolipase determined by predictive methods.

Abstract
The reactions of lipase (449 amino acid residues) and lipase fragment (336-449) with p-nitrophenyl acetate have been studied from 2 different angles. In previous papers it has been shown that lipase and lipase fragment enzymatically hydrolyze p-nitrophenyl acetate. The amino acid residue of the catalytic site that is temporarily acetylated has not yet been characterized in lipase or lipase fragment. Besides this very fast enzymatic hydrolysis, acetylation reactions may take place on nucleophilic amino acid side-chain groups. In the present report, acetylated amino acid residues whose acetyl linkages were not cleaved after pH 7.5-8.5 incubations have been investigated. Several residues were acetylated in very low proportion, whereas lysine 373 was stoichiometrically acetylated in lipase and in lipase fragment. This specific acetylation may have been favored by the presence of a hydrophobic reversible binding site for p-nitrophenyl acetate near Lys-373. This acetylation did not greatly change the specific activity of lipase towards an emulsion of tributyrylglycerol in the presence of colipase, but under certain conditions it had an effect on the enzymatic hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl acetate by the lipase fragment.

Abstract
By hydrolyzing the dietary triacylglycerols, pancreatic lipase causes catalysis in heterogeneous medium. In vivo, lipase action cannot take place without colipase due to the presence of bile salts. The cofactor enables lipase anchoring to the water-lipid interface. The lipase-colipase system furnishes an excellent example of specific interactions (protein-protein and protein-lipid). The studies of lipase catalytic properties brought to light the importance of certain parameters related to the 'quality of the interface'. The structure-function relationship analyses revealed a certain number of functional amino acid residues in lipase and colipase involved either in the catalytic site of the enzyme or in the recognition sites (lipase-colipase and protein-interface). Comparisons of the sequences of lipases derived from different sources display interesting similarities in certain cases.

Abstract
Following the complete sequence elucidation of human pancreatic stone protein (immunoreactive form PSP S1 isolated from pancreatic juice) [(1987) Eur. J. Biochem. 168, 201-207], the location of the three S-S bridges of the protein was investigated. The cystine-containing peptides, detected after the separation of the peptic or chymotryptic digests on SP-Sephadex or Sephadex G-50, were submitted to Edman degradation and/or to oxidation. The cysteic peptides after separation on SP-Sephadex or Sephadex G-50 were characterized by their amino acid compositions. The pairing of the half-cystines: Cys 3-Cys 14, Cys 31-Cys 129 and Cys 104-Cys 121 was determined. The same experiments carried out with PSP S2-5 (other immunoreactive forms) gave an identical characterization.

Abstract
Fluorescence techniques have been employed to study the interaction of porcine and equine colipase with pure taurodeoxycholate and mixed micelles. Nitrotyrosine-55 of porcine colipase is obtained by modification with tetranitromethane (low excess, in the presence of taurodeoxycholate) of the protein followed by gel filtration and ion-exchange chromatography. Verification of the residue modified was obtained by h.p.l.c. peptide purification and sequence analysis. Reduction and quantitative reaction with dansyl chloride yields a fluorescent derivative that is twice as active in conjunction with lipase as is native colipase and that exhibits a strong emission band at 550 nm. Addition of micellar concentrations of taurodeoxycholate causes a 4.3-fold increase in the emission maximum as well as a 70 nm blue shift to 480 nm. Inclusion of oleic acid to form a mixed micelle reduces these spectral effects. Scatchard analysis of the data yield a Kd of 6.8 X 10(-4) M and a single colipase-binding site for taurodeoxycholate micelles. The data, by analogy to a phospholipase system, are consistent with a direct insertion of dansyl-NH-tyrosine-55 into the micelle. The presence of a single tryptophan residue (Trp-52) in equine colipase provides an intrinsic fluorescent probe for studying protein-micelle interaction. The emission maximum of horse colipase at 345 nm indicates a solvent-accessible tryptophan residue which becomes less so on binding of micelles. A blue shift of 8 nm and a 2-fold increase in amplitude is indicative of a more hydrophobic environment for tryptophan induced by taurodeoxycholate micelles. There is also a decrease in KSV for acrylamide quenching in the presence of micelles, which further supports a loss of solvent accessibility. The most dramatic pH effects are observed with KI quenching, and may indicate the presence of negative charges near Trp-52.

Abstract
Mild chymotrypsin digestion of native lipase (449 amino acids) preferentially cleaved the Phe 335-Ala 336 bond. On SDS-gel electrophoresis, 3 major bands were observed: band 1 (52 kDa) representing native lipase, bands 2 and 3 (40 and 12 kDa) representing the two lipase fragments A and B. Fragment A does not retain lipase activity but maintains its ability to adsorb to interfaces. Fragment B was identified with the lipase C-terminal region (336-449). It does not exhibit any activity towards tributyrylglycerol emulsions and any ability to adsorb to interfaces.

Affinity chromatography of lipase on a colipase-coupled gel was studied in the present paper. The elution volume of the associable lipase increased when the loaded amount decreased. A KD value of 1.9 X 10(-6) M at pH 6.2 was thus deduced. A minimum value of 1.5 X 10(-6) M was obtained at pH 5.1-5.3. Mixed micelles associated with coupled colipase, but no modifications of lipase-colipase interactions took place when mixed micelles were added to the elution buffer. DMMA-modified coupled colipase failed to interact with lipase, owing to the specific orientation of the modified cofactor in the gel.
