Abstract
Detergent solubilization and purification of the E. coli heavy metal P-type ATPase ZntA yields an enzyme with reduced hydrolytic activity in vitro. Here, it is shown that the in vitro hydrolytic activity of detergent solubilized ZntA is increased in the presence of negatively charged phospholipids and at slightly acidic pH. The protein-lipid interaction of ZntA was characterized by enzyme-coupled ATPase assays and fluorescence spectroscopy. Among the most abundant naturally occurring phospholipids, only phosphatidyl-glycerol lipids (PG) enhance the in vitro enzymatic ATPase activity of ZntA. Re-lipidation of detergent purified ZntA with 1,2-dioleoylphosphatidyl-glycerol (DOPG) increases the ATPase activity four-fold compared to the purified state. All other E. coli phospholipids fail to activate the ATPase. Among the phosphatidyl-glycerol family, highest activity was observed for 1,2-dioleoyl-PG followed by 1,2-dimyristoyl-PG, 1,2-dipalmitoyl-PG and 1,2-distearoyl-PG. Increasing intrinsic Trp fluorescence quantum yield upon relipidation of ZntA was used to determine a pH maximum for lipid binding at pH 6.7. The pH dependence of the lipid binding was confirmed by pH-dependent ATPase assays showing maximum activity at pH 6.7. The biophysical characterization of detergent solubilized membrane proteins crucially relies on the conformational stability and functional integrity of the protein under investigation. The present study describes how the E. coli ZntA P-type ATPase can be stabilized and functionally activated in a detergent solubilized system.

Abstract
Protein-lipid interactions are studied in normal and denervated electrocytes from Electrophorus electricus (L.). Structural modifications of the lipid micro-environment encircling integral membrane proteins in membrane fractions presenting Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity are investigated using ESR spectroscopy of stearic acid spin labeled at the 14th carbon (14-SASL). The microsomal fraction derived from the innervated electric organ exhibits, on a discontinuous sucrose gradient, a bimodal distribution of the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity, bands a and b. Band b is almost absent in microsomes from the denervated organ, and band a', with the same density as band a has lower Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity. Band a' presents a larger ratio of protein-interacting lipids than band a. Analysis of the lipid stoichiometry at the protein interface indicates that denervation causes at least a twofold average decrease on protein oligomerization. Physical inactivity and denervation have similar effects on protein-lipid interactions. Denervation also influences the selectivity of proteins for fatty acids. Experiments in decreasing pH conditions performed to verify the influence of stearic acid negative charge on protein interaction revealed that denervation produces loss of charge selectivity. The observed modifications on molecular interactions induced by denervation may have importance to explain modulation of enzyme activity.

Abstract
The lipid chain motions in stratum corneum (SC) membranes have been studied through electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy of stearic acid spin-labeled at the 5th, 12th and 16th carbon atom positions of the acyl chain. Lipids have been extracted from SC with a series of chloroform/methanol mixtures, in order to compare the molecular dynamics and the thermotropic behavior in intact SC, lipid-depleted SC (containing covalently bound lipids of the corneocyte envelope) and dispersion of extracted SC lipids. The segmental motion of 5- and 12-doxylstearic acid (5- and 12-DSA) and the rotational correlation time of 16-doxylstearic acid (16-DSA) showed that the envelope lipids are more rigid and the extracted lipids are more fluid than the lipids of the intact SC over the range of temperature measured. The lower fluidity observed for the corneocyte envelope, that may be caused mainly due to lipid-protein interactions, suggests a major contribution of this lipid domain to the barrier function of SC. Changes in the activation energy for reorientational diffusion of the 16-DSA spin label showed apparent phase transitions around 54 degrees C, for the three SC samples. Some lipid reorganization may occur in SC above 54 degrees C, in agreement with results reported from studies with several other techniques. This reorganization is sensitive to the presence of the extractable intercellular lipids, being different in the lipid-depleted sample as compared to native SC and lipid dispersion. The results contribute to the understanding of alkyl chain packing and mobility in the SC membranes, which are involved in the mechanisms that control the permeability of different compounds through skin, suggesting an important involvement of the envelope in the skin barrier.

Abstract
The thermotropic phase behavior of asymmetric, long fatty acid chain species of cerebroside sulfate, C24-CBS and C26-CBS, with symmetric species of phosphatidylcholine (PC) containing fatty acid chains of 14-18 carbons in length (diC14-PC, diC16-PC, diC18-PC) and dimyristoylphosphatidylethanolamine (diC14-PE) in 0.1 M KCl was studied by differential scanning calorimetry. Novel cerebroside sulfate (CBS) spin labels containing long chain C24 and C26 fatty acid spin labels with the nitroxide group on the twenty-second carbon were used to study the lipid organization of the gel phases of these mixtures. The phase diagrams of all the mixtures indicated the presence of two immiscible gel phases at low CBS concentrations. All except the C26-CBS/diC14-PC mixture had eutectic phase behavior at low CBS concentrations suggesting that the long fatty acid chain of the CBS species had a destabilizing effect on the gel phase of most of the phospholipids. The C26-CBS/diC14-PC mixture had peritectic phase behavior at low CBS concentrations indicating a stabilizing effect of the CBS C26 acyl chain on diC14-PC. These results are consistent with the relative compatibility of the CBS acyl chain length with the bilayer thickness of the PC; only in the case of the C26-CBS/diC14-PC mixture is the acyl chain of CBS long enough to span the PC bilayer. At intermediate to high CBS concentrations, the CBS and phospholipid (PL) were miscible with the exception of the C24-CBS/diC18-PC combination, which had eutectic phase behavior over a wide concentration range. Thus when the PL acyl chain length was similar to the sphingosine chain length of CBS, CBS bilayers could accommodate symmetric phospholipid molecules better than phospholipid bilayers could accommodate asymmetric molecules of CBS. Use of the spin labels indicated that, at low temperatures and at intermediate to high CBS concentrations, all of the mixtures were in a triple chain mixed interdigitated gel phase which immobilized the spin label. This gel phase slowly transformed over a wide temperature range to a double chain partially interdigitated gel phase in which the spin labels had much more motion. This transformation could be detected as a broad low enthalpy transition by differential scanning calorimetry. In all cases the presence of phospholipid destabilized the mixed interdigitated phase. Stabilization of the partially interdigitated bilayer by intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions must outweigh the destabilizing forces caused by disruptions in packing and van der Waals interactions between CBS molecules resulting from insertion of molecules of phospholipid into this type of bilayer.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
Phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), ethanolamine plasmalogen (EPLAS), sphingomyelin (SPH), phosphatidylinositol (PI), phosphatidylserine (PS), cardiolipin (CL), phosphatidylglycerol (PG) and phosphatidic acid (PA) were dispersed together in Cs(ethylenedinitrilo)tetraacetic acid-scrubbed chloroform/methanol solution, and high resolution 31P nuclear magnetic resonance spectra were recorded. In separate titration experiments, Mg2+ and Ca2+ were added to the dispersed phospholipid mixture to determine the relative interaction potentials of each of the phospholipids for each of the added cations. The association of cations with individual phospholipids was indicated by 31P chemical-shift changes, signal broadening, signal quenching or a combination of these. The titrations revealed that CL had the highest, and PA the next highest, interaction potential for Mg2+ cations. In contrast, PS and PA had the highest, and CL the next highest, interaction potential for Ca2+. Considering only interactions with Ca2+ ions, the phospholipids can be divided into three distinct groups: PS and PA (high interaction potential); CL, PI and PG (intermediate interaction potential); and EPLAS, PE, SPH and PC (essentially no interaction potential). The two phospholipids with the least interaction potential for either of the alkaline-earth cations were PC and SPH. Na+ and K+ ion interactions with PA, CL, PI and PG were unique and resulted in positive chemical-shift changes relative to the chemical shifts in the presence of Cs+ ions. Relative to both Cs+ and K+ ions, chemical shifts in the presence of Na+ ions were deshielded delta greater than 0.1 ppm in the order PA greater than CL greater than PI greater than PG.

Abstract
It was recently reported (Turner, R.J., George, J.N., 1990, J. Membrane Biol. 113:203-210) that the high affinity bumetanide binding site of the rabbit parotid Na/K/Cl cotransporter could be extracted from a basolateral membrane preparation from this gland using relatively low concentrations of the non-ionic detergent Triton X-100. At the detergent:protein ratios required for complete membrane solubilization bumetanide binding activity in this extract was lost but could be recovered by the addition of crude soybean lipids. In the present paper the ability of various purified lipids to restore high affinity bumetanide binding activity in detergent solubilized rabbit parotid basolateral membranes is studied. We show that the effect of exogenous lipid on the detergent-inactivated bumetanide binding site is to increase the affinity of binding without affecting the number of binding sites. Of the 11 lipid species tested, several relatively minor, negatively charged membrane phospholipids are the most effective in restoring binding activity (phosphatidylserine approximately phosphatidylglycerol greater than phosphatidylinositol greater than cardiolipin), while the major mammalian plasma membrane lipid components phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, sphingomyelin and cholesterol are without effect. In addition, we show that in the presence of these minor lipids the affinity of bumetanide binding is considerably increased over that observed in the native membrane (e.g., Kd approximately 0.06 microM in membranes extracted with 0.3% Triton and treated with 0.15% wt/vol phosphatidylserine, vs. Kd approximately 3 microM in native basolateral membranes). This dramatic dependence of bumetanide binding affinity on the presence of certain lipid species suggests that the properties of the bumetanide binding protein in situ may be quite dependent on the minor lipid content of the plasma membrane.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The stoichiometry and specificity of lipid-protein interaction, as well as the lipid exchange rates at the protein interface, have been determined from the electron spin resonance spectra of spin-labeled lipids in reconstituted complexes of the mitochondrial ADP-ATP carrier with egg phosphatidylcholine. With the exception of cardiolipin and phosphatidic acid, the lipids studied are found to compete for approximately 50 sites at the intramembranous surface of the protein dimer. This number of first-shell lipid sites is unusually large for a protein of this size. The specificity for the protein is in the order stearic acid approximately phosphatidic acid approximately cardiolipin greater than phosphatidylserine greater than phosphatidylglycerol approximately phosphatidylcholine, with the maximum association constant relative to phosphatidylcholine being approximately 4. The selectivity for anionic lipids was partially screened with increasing ionic strength, but to a lesser extent for cardiolipin and phosphatidic acid than for stearic acid. Only in the case of phosphatidylserine was the selectivity reduced at high ionic strength to a level close to that for phosphatidylcholine. The off rates for lipid exchange at the protein surface were independent of lipid/protein ratio and correlated in a reciprocal fashion with the different lipid selectivities, varying from 5 x 10(6) s-1 for stearic acid at low ionic strength to 2 x 10(7) s-1 for phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylglycerol. The off rates for cardiolipin were unusually low in comparison with the observed selectivity, and indicated the existence of a special population of sites (ca. 30% of the total) for cardiolipin, at which the exchange rate was very low.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The lipid specificities of two related integral membrane proteins of central nervous system myelin, the proteolipid (PLP) and DM-20 proteins, which differ only by the deletion of a polar stretch of 35 contiguous amino acid residues, were studied with spin-labeled lipids after reconstitution into dimyristoyl-phosphatidylcholine. The selectivity in populating lipid association sites at the protein interface and in modulating the lipid exchange between protein and bulk lipid sites was quantitated by the relative association constants and the off-rate constants for exchange, respectively, for both proteins. The sequence deleted in DM-20 (residues 116-150 of PLP) is found to play a major role in determining the lipid selectivity for the parent PLP protein.

Abstract
Recent data reveal that membrane proteins can be regulated by the lipid environment of the membrane in which the proteins are located. Phospholipids and sterols are capable of regulating membrane protein activity. In some cases, the regulation is specific and may be crucial to cell function. The mechanisms by which this regulation is carried out have not been firmly established. However, the likely mechanisms include bilayer thickness, specific binding of lipids to sites on membrane proteins, and interactions between the surface of the protein and the surface of the lipid bilayer.

Abstract
The present experiments were designed to determine the kinetic pattern of Na,K-ATPase in the presence of varying concentrations of Na+ and K+ ions in controls and gerbils exposed to 1 and 5 min of ischemia, respectively, and 60 min and 4 days of recirculation following 5 min of transient ischemia. The pattern of Na,K-ATPase activity in the control cerebral cortex and hippocampus is different. The cortical Na,K-ATPase apparently is more resistant in keeping an optimal activity than the enzyme in the hippocampus. After ischemic insult of either 1 or 5 min in duration, the enzyme activity is inhibited in both brain structures. 4 days after 5 min of ischemia, indicating greater flexibility of the cortical enzyme or less damage than in the hippocampus. Furthermore, the data obtained show that only through the enzyme behavior and kinetic parameters is it possible to reach conclusions about the enzyme function or dysfunction under pathological conditions.

Abstract
The ATPase activity in human red blood cell membranes was investigated in vitro as a function of temperature and exposure to 2,450-MHz continuous wave microwave radiation to confirm and extend a report of Na+ transport inhibition under certain conditions of temperature and exposure. Assays were conducted spectrophotometrically during microwave exposure with a custom-made spectrophotometer-waveguide apparatus. Temperature profiles of total ATPase and Ca+2 ATPase (ouabain-inhibited) activity between 17 and 31 degrees C were graphed as an Arrhenius plot. Each data set was fitted to two straight lines which intersect between 23 and 24 degrees C. The difference between the total and Ca+2 ATPase activities, which represented the Na+/K+ ATPase activity, was also plotted and treated similarly to yield an intersection near 25 degrees C. Exposure of membrane suspensions to electromagnetic radiation, at a dose rate of 6 W/kg and at five temperatures between 23 and 27 degrees C, resulted in an activity change only for the Na+/K+ ATPase at 25 degrees C. The activity decreased by approximately 35% compared to sham-irradiated samples. A possible explanation for the unusual temperature/microwave interaction is proposed.

Abstract
A series of amine-specific reagents based on the benzaldehyde reactive group have been synthesized, characterized, and used to study beef heart cytochrome c oxidase reconstituted in phospholipid bilayers. The series contained three classes of reagents: lipid-soluble phosphodiesters having a single hydrocarbon chain, phospholipid analogues, and a water-soluble benzaldehyde. All reagents were either radiolabeled or spin-labeled or both. The Schiff bases formed by these benzaldehydes with amines were found to be reversible until the addition of the reducing agent sodium cyanoborohydride, whereas attachment of lipid-derived aliphatic aldehydes was not readily reversible in the absence of the reducing agent. The benzaldehyde group provides a convenient method of controlling and delaying permanent attachment to integral membrane proteins until after the reconstitution steps. This ensures that the lipid analogues are located properly to identify amine groups at the lipid-protein interface rather than reacting indiscriminately with amines of the hydrophilic domains of the protein. The benzaldehyde lipid labels attach to cytochrome c oxidase with high efficiency. Typically, 20% of the amount of lipid label present was covalently attached to the protein, and the number of moles of label incorporated per mole of protein ranged from 1 to 6, depending on the molar ratios of label, lipid, and protein. The efficiency of labeling by the water-soluble benzaldehyde was much less than that observed for any of the lipid labels because of dilution effects, but equivalent levels of incorporation were achieved by increasing the label concentration. Electron spin resonance spectra of a nitroxide-containing phospholipid analogue covalently attached to reconstituted cytochrome c oxidase exhibited a large motion-restricted component, which is characteristic of spin-labeled lipids in contact with the hydrophobic surfaces of membrane proteins. The line shape and splittings were similar for covalently attached label and label free to diffuse and contact the protein molecules in the bilayer, providing independent evidence that the coupling occurs at the protein-lipid interface. The distribution of the benzaldehyde reagents attached to the polypeptide components of cytochrome c oxidase was examined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The labeling pattern observed for the lipid analogues was not affected by the presence of the nitroxide moiety on the acyl chains but was dependent on the molar ratio of labeling reagent to protein.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
A spin-labeled phospholipid is used to study lipid-protein interactions in the (Ca2+,Mg2+)-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum from muscle. A novel null method is used to decompose composite electron spin resonance spectra into two components, characteristic of immobilized and mobile environments. Calculations based on a random mixing model suggest that protein-protein interactions will be relatively rare in these systems and that the immobilized lipid does not represent lipid trapped between proteins but rather represents annular phospholipid at the lipid-protein interface of the adenosinetriphosphatase. The apparent decrease in the amount of immobilized lipid with increasing temperature is shown to be consistent with lipid exchange between bulk and annulus, characterized by an exchange time of 10(-7) s at 37 degrees C. A minimum number of annular phospholipid sites of 32 and 22 are calculated at 0 and 37 degrees C, respectively.

Abstract
Lipid-protein interactions in (Na+,K+)-ATPase-rich membranes from the rectal gland of Squalus acanthias have been studied by using spin-labeled lipids in conjunction with electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy. Lipid-protein associations are revealed by the presence of a second component in the ESR spectra of the membranes in addition to a component which corresponds very closely to the ESR spectra obtained from dispersions of the extracted membrane lipids. This second component corresponds to spin-labeled lipids whose motion is very significantly restricted relative to that of the fluid lipids in the membrane or the lipid extract. A stoichiometry of approximately 66 lipids per 265 000-dalton protein is found for the motionally restricted component of those spin-labeled lipids (e.g., phosphatidylcholine) which show least specificity for the protein. This corresponds approximately to the number of lipids which may be accommodated within the first shell around the alpha 2 beta 2 protein dimer. A selectivity of the various spin-labeled lipids for the motionally restricted component associated with the protein is found in the following order: cardiolipin greater than phosphatidylserine approximately stearic acid greater than or equal to phosphatidic acid greater than phosphatidylglycerol approximately phosphatidylcholine approximately phosphatidylethanolamine approximately androstanol.

Abstract
When HeLa cells are exposed to brief heat shock at 45 degrees C there is a reduction in the cellular level of Na+K+ATPase. Return of the cells to the normal growth temperature of 37 degrees C leads to a partial restoration of enzyme activity. The pattern of this recovery of activity suggests that it may be associated with the induction of heat shock proteins. Indeed other means of heat shock protein induction such as continuous heat treatment at 42 degrees C, or treatment of cells at 37 degrees C with sodium arsenite, leads to elevated levels of Na+K+ATPase activity and alterations in the kinetic properties of the enzyme. Continuous hyperthermia at 42 degrees C led to increased lactate production which could be blocked with ouabain suggesting that effects on Na+K+ATPase activity could partly influence glycolysis. A number of other human and hamster cells also showed increased lactate production at 42 degrees C and also an inhibition of lactate production by ouabain. Whilst incubation of HeLa cells with cyanide had little effect on glycolysis at 37 degrees C elevation of the temperature to 42 degrees C (or 45 degrees C), in the presence of cyanide, impaired glycolysis. The possible role in this phenomenon, of an unusual oxygen-sensitive isoenzyme of lactate dehydrogenase, expressed in human cancers, is discussed.

Abstract
A multiple equilibrium binding model is used to examine phospholipid and cholesterol binding with the transmembranous protein Ca2+-ATPase (calcium pump). The protein was reconstituted in egg phosphatidylcholine bilayers by lipid substitution of rabbit muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum. Electron spin resonance spectra of a phosphatidylcholine spin-label and a recently developed cholesterol spin-label show two major spectral contributions, a motionally restricted component consistent with interactions between the label and the protein surface and another component characteristic of motion of the label in a fluid lipid bilayer. The number of lipid binding (or contact) sites at the hydrophobic surface of the protein is calculated to be N = 22 +/- 2. Experiments with intact sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes give approximately the same value for N. The relative binding constants are Kav approximately 1 for the phosphatidylcholine label and Kav approximately 0.65 for the cholesterol spin-label. Thus, cholesterol does contact the surface of the protein, but with a somewhat lower probability than phosphatidylcholine. This is confirmed by competition experiments where unlabeled cholesterol and the phospholipid spin-label are both present in the bilayer. Evidently the flexible acyl chains of the phospholipid molecules accommodate more readily to the irregular surface of the protein than does the rigid steroid structure of cholesterol.

Abstract
(Na+ + K+)-ATPase membranes from Torpedo marmorata electric organ were labeled with high concentrations of paramagnetic phospholipid analogs (up to 5 mol of spin labels for 100 mol of endogeneous phospholipids). The mobile lipid bilayer component of the complex resonance spectra obtained showed low-field linewidth broadening due to spin-spin interactions; this was used as a measure of probe concentration in this compartment. Our results show that in the lipid shell surrounding the protein, there is a considerable enrichment in negatively charged phospholipids over neutral ones.

Abstract
We report the detection of electrostatic interactions between local anesthetics and membrane phospholipids and proteins. A spin-labeled local anesthetic was used to study how membrane-bound tertiary amine anesthetics interact with major molecular components in the membrane. The nitroxyl reporter group of this spin label is located at the polar end of the amphiphilic local anesthetic; it is therefore a uniquely suitable probe for detecting immobilization of the anesthetic due to binding interactions at the polar regions of the bilayer. The binding properties of this spin-labeled anesthetic to human erythrocyte membranes and to vesicles made from human erythrocyte lipids were studied. Lipid vesicle-bound spin labels give rise to a composite electron spin resonance spectrum from which two subcomponent spectra were resolved. Both components are membrane-bound; the first component has a narrower linewidth, indicating a greater mobility of the nitroxyl moiety of the anesthetic probe. The second component has a broader linewidth, indicating a population of constrained spin labels. We infer from the experimental results that electrostatic binding between cationic anesthetics and anionic phosphate of phospholipids produced the constrained component. In similar studies using erythrocyte ghost membranes, both a mobile (nonelectrostatic) component and a constrained (electrostatic) component were resolved from the composite spectrum. However, the constrained component in this case is much broader than the corresponding constrained component from the vesicles. We interpret this broad component in the erythrocyte membrane as an electrostatic interaction of cationic anesthetic probes with phospholipids and with membrane proteins. We conclude that membrane-bound tertiary amine anesthetics in cationic form do interact selectively with phospholipids and proteins.

Abstract
This paper shows for the first time that effects of lipid ordering on the activity of surface-membrane enzymes can be interpreted in terms of the two-state allosteric transition theory. In this mathematical modelling, the conversion of an active molecule into a catalytically inactivated one of a given enzyme can be directly triggered by a change in the order parameter of lipids. Depending on the lipid order, the tendency for this conversion is either independent of the state of other enzyme molecules or co-operatively aided through intermolecular interactions that in turn depend on lipid ordering. The theory so developed is then applied to (Na+ + K+)-dependent adenosine triphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.3). On comparison of the relevant theoretical expression and published measurements, the fit to experimental results is shown to support the model. Furthermore, the model accounts for much of the data in the literature of the behaviour of this enzyme.

Abstract
The artificial insertion of increasing amounts of unsaturated fatty acids into human erythrocyte membranes modulated ATPase activities in a biphasic manner, depending on the number and position of double bonds, their configuration, and the chain length. Uncharged long-chain fatty acid derivatives with double bonds and short-chain fatty acids were ineffective. Stearic acid stimulated Na+ K+-ATPase only. Anionic and non-ionic detergents and alpha-lysophosphatidylcholine failed to stimulate ATPase activities at low, and inhibited them at high concentrations. Mg2+-AtPase activity was maximally enhanced by a factor of 2 in the presence of monoenoic fatty acids; half-maximal stimulation was achieved at a molar ratio of cis(trans)-configurated C18 acids/membrane phospholipid of 0.16 (0.26). Na+K+-ATPase activity was maximally augmented by 20% in the presence of monoenoic C18 fatty acids at 37 degrees C. Half-maximal effects were attained at a molar ratio oleic (elaidic) acid/phospholipid of 0.032 (0.075). Concentrations of free fatty acids which inhibited ATPases activities at 37 degrees C were most stimulatory at reduced temperatures. At 10 degrees C, oleic acid increased Na+K+-ATPase activity fivefold (molar ratio 0.22). Unsaturated fatty acids simulated the effects of calmodulin on Ca2+-ATPase of native erythrocyte membranes (i.e., increase of Vmax from 1.6 to 5 mumol PO43- . phospholipid-1 . hr-1, decrease of K'Ca from 6 microM to 1.4-1.8 microM). Stearic acid decreased K'Ca (2 microM) only, probably due to an increase of negative surface charges. A stimulation of Mg2+-ATPase, Na+K+-ATPase, and Ca2+-ATPase could be achieved by incubation of the membranes with phospholipase A2. An electrostatic segregation of free fatty acids by ATPases with ensuing alterations of surface charge densities and disordering of the hydrophobic environment of the enzymes provides an explanation of the results.

Abstract
We have used spin labels and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) to study the correlation between the rotational dynamics of protein and lipid in sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) membranes. A short-chain maleimide spin label was used to monitor the submillisecond rotational mobility of the Ca-ATPase enzyme (using saturation transfer EPR); a free fatty acid spin label was used to monitor the submicrosecond rotational mobility of the bulk lipid hydrocarbon chains (using conventional EPR); and a fatty acid spin label derivative (long-chain maleimide) attached to the enzyme was used to monitor the mobility of hydrocarbon chains adjacent to the protein (i.e., boundary lipid). In the native SR membranes, the protein was highly mobile (effective correlation time 50 microseconds). The spectra of the hydrocarbon probes both contained at least two components. For the unattached probe, the major component indicated nearly as much mobility as in the absence of protein (effective rotational correlation time 3 ns), while a minor component, corresponding to 25-30% of the total signal, indicated strong immobilization (effective correlation time greater than or equal to 10 ns). For the attached hydrocarbon probe, the major component (approximately 70% of the total) was strongly immobilized, and the mobile component was less mobile than that of the unattached probe. When the lipid-to-protein ratio was reduced 55% by treatment with deoxycholate, protein mobility decreased considerably, suggesting protein aggregation. A concomitant increase was observed in the fraction of immobilized spin labels for both the free and attached hydrocarbon probes. The observed hydrocarbon immobilization probably arises in part from immobilization at the protein-lipid boundary, but protein-protein interactions that trap hydrocarbon chains may also contribute. When protein aggregation was induced by glutaraldehyde crosslinking, submillisecond protein mobility was eliminated, but there was no effect on either hydrocarbon probe. Thus protein aggregation does not necessarily cause hydrocarbon chain immobilization.

Abstract
Lipid spin labels have been used to study lipid-protein interactions in bovine and frog rod outer segment disc membranes, in (Na+, K+)-ATPase membranes from shark rectal gland, and in yeast cytochrome oxidase-dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine complexes. These systems all display a two component ESR spectrum from 14-doxyl lipid spin-labels. One component corresponds to the normal fluid bilayer lipids. The second component has a greater degree of motional restriction and arises from lipids interacting with the protein. For the phosphatidylcholine spin label there are effectively 55 +/- 5 lipids/200,000-dalton cytochrome oxidase, 58 +/- 4 mol lipid/265,000 dalton (Na+, K+)-ATPase, and 24 +/- 3 and 22 +/- 2 mol lipid/37,000 dalton rhodopsin for the bovine and frog preparations, respectively. These values correlate roughly with the intramembrane protein perimeter and scale with the square root of the molecular weight of the protein. For cytochrome oxidase the motionally restricted component bears a fixed stoichiometry to the protein at high lipid:protein ratios, and is reduced at low lipid:protein ratios to an extent which can be quantitatively accounted for by random protein-protein contacts. Experiments with spin labels of different headgroups indicate a marked selectivity of cytochrome oxidase and the (Na+, K+)-ATPase for stearic acid and for cardiolipin, relative to phosphatidylcholine. The motionally restricted component from the cardiolipin spin label is 80% greater than from the phosphatidylcholine spin label for cytochrome oxidase (at lipid:protein = 90.1), and 160% greater for the (Na+, K+)-ATPase. The corresponding increases for the stearic acid label are 20% for cytochrome oxidase and 40% for (Na+, K+)-ATPase. The effective association constant for cardiolipin is approximately 4.5 times greater than for phosphatidylcholine, and that for stearic acid is 1.5 times greater, in both systems. Almost no specificity is found in the interaction of spin-labeled lipids (including cardiolipin) with rhodopsin in the rod outer segment disc membrane. The linewidths of the fluid spin-label component in bovine rod outer segment membranes are consistently higher than those in bilayers of the extracted membrane lipids and provide valuable information on the rate of exchange between the two lipid components, which is suggested to be in the range of 10(6)-10(7) s-1.

Abstract
2H NMR and EPR spectra have been obtained as a function of temperature and protein concentration from the same samples of beef heart cytochrome c oxidase reconstituted into 1-(16,16,16-trideuteriopalmitoyl)-2-palmitoleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine. At all temperatures, the EPR spectra show the characteristic "bound" and "free" components, while the 2H NMR spectra show only a narrow distribution of orientational order parameters. At temperatures near the phase transition of the pure lipid, the dependence of the 2H NMR average orientational order on protein concentration fits a two-stage model in which the phospholipid molecular exchange rapidly between two states tentatively identified as sites either on or off the protein surface. From this model, the 2H NMR spectra yield a value of 0.18 mg of phospholipid per mg of protein as necessary to cover the surface of cytochrome c oxidase, which is the same value as derived from the EPR spectra at -20 degrees C. Both the 2H NMR and EPR spectra vary markedly with temperature. At temperatures well above the phase transition of the pure lipid, the average orientational parameters derived from the 2H NMR spectra are independent of protein concentration and are the same as for the lipid alone. Qualitatively, the EPR spectra show large apparent decreases in the average orientational order with increasing temperature. Analysis of 2H NMR relaxation rates indicates an additional motion in the presence of protein with a correlation time of 10(-6)-10(-7) s. If this new motion is associated with exchange between the two states, a minimum value of 10(6)-10(7) s-1 for the exchange rate is obtained, assuming that the lipids on the protein surface are much more motionally restricted than the rest of the lipid. Such an exchange rate is compatible with the observed differences in 2H NMR and EPR spectra. These results are consistent with short-lived, energetically weak interactions between cytochrome c oxidase and the phospholipids used in this study.

Abstract
Fluorescence quenching by spin-labeled phospholipid is used to determine the affinities of different phospholipids species to an intrinsic membrane protein, the Ca2+-ATPase of sacroplasmic reticulum. The phospholipids in contact with the Ca2+ ATPase are examined in a reconstituted system in which the enzyme is incorporated into a model membrane of defined phospholipid composition. The local phospholipid environment of the protein is considered to be governed at each phospholipid binding site by an equilibrium: lipid A + (lipid B - protein) in equilibrium or formed from lipid B + (lipid A - protein). Phospholipid binding constants to the Ca2+ ATPase can be obtained from an analysis of fluorescence quenching data. The binding constants for a number of phospholipid species are nearly identical when the phospholipids are in the liquid-crystal state. However, temperature of Ca2+-induced phase separation of phospholipid induces striking changes in the composition of the phospholipids in contact with the Ca2+ATPase, relative to the overall composition of the membranes. The implications of these results with respect to the control of local phospholipids environment by intrinsic membrane proteins and the nature of the phospholipids binding sites on the proteins are discussed. General applicability of this type of fluorescence quenching study to the problem of lipid-protein interactions in membranes is considered, and this method is compared to other techniques.

Abstract
The interaction of Triton X-100 and other nonionic detergents with a delipidated preparation of the Ca2+ ATPase from sarcoplasmic reticulum has been studied. Binding of radiolabeled Triton X-100 was determined by column chromatography at 6 degrees C, and two classes of binding sites were observed. Below the critical micelle concentration (cmc), binding of Triton occurred at 35-40 equivalent sites on the delipidated ATPase with a binding constant of 2.7 X 10(4) M-1. Near the cmc cooperative binding of an additional 70 molecules of the detergent was observed. The binding of monomeric Triton X-100 below the cmc was associated with a parallel activation of over half of the ATPase activity, and the remainder of the activity was recovered after the detergent concentration was increased to the cmc. The ability to reactivate ATPase activity was more dependent on the polar poly(oxyethylene) portion of nonionic detergents than on the hydrocarbon portion. Generalizing for all amphiphiles, these results suggest that there are discrete binding sites on the Ca2+ ATPase for phospholipid molecules in the native membrane and that the polar head groups of phospholipids interact more strongly with the protein than the hydrophobic acyl chains. Perturbations in micelle structure were observed for several nonionic detergents by measurement of cis-parinaric acid fluorescence and differential scanning calorimetry, and discontinuities in Arrhenius plots occurred at the transition temperature of the detergent used for reactivation of ATPase activity. It is concluded that both the physiol state of teh micelle and the intrinsic behavior of the ATPase polypeptide affect the temperature dependence of ATPase activity.

Abstract
In this article, I review the current information concerning the partition of the fluorescent probes, cis-parinaric acid (9, 11, 13, 15-cis, trans, trans, cis-octadecatetraenoic acid) and trans-parinaric acid (9, 11, 13, 15-all trans-octadecatetraenoic acid) among aqueous, solid lipid, and fluid lipid phases. The association of these probes with lipid is described by a mole fraction partition coefficient whose value is trypically in the range of 1-5 x 10(6), a reasonable value in light of partition coefficients for other fatty acids between hydrophobic phases and water. The partition coefficient, in the absence of lipid phase changes, is relatively independent of temperature and only slightly dependent on the total aqueous probe concentration. In lipid samples which contain coexisting fluid and solid phases, trans-parinaric acid preferentially partitions into the solid phase, while cis-parinaric acid distributes nearly equally between fluid and solid phases. This partition behavior probably arises from the molecular shape of the cis and trans parinaric acid in mixed lipid systems or membranes it is possible to evaluate the proportion of lipid components involved in phase changes or phase separation. From fluorescence energy transfer between protein typtophan residues and the parinaric acid isomers it is possible to gain information about the organization of lipids and proteins in membranes and model systems. I close the review by considering some of the membrane research areas where these probes and their various lipid derivatives may be particularly useful.
