Abstract
PURPOSE Side effects of diarrhea and steatorrhea diminish the therapeutic value of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). We report in vitro studies of the effect of HAART drugs on the activity of pancrelipase, trypsin, and enterokinase and restoration of activity by subsequent addition of excess pancrelipase or colipase. METHODS Commercial formulations of sixteen HAART drug formulations with solvent and four excipients were mixed with substrate. Activity of pancrelipase was recorded after addition of the enzyme; restoration of activity was monitored after addition of excess pancrelipase or colipase to the reaction mixture. RESULTS Five protease inhibitors (Agenerase solution, Agenerase capsules, Norvir, Viracept, Kaletra, and Fortovase) and the excipient TPGS (d-alpha-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate) inhibited lipase significantly at or below physiological concentrations. Neither nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors nor non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors showed significant lipase inhibition at physiological levels. Addition of excess pancrelipase to the medium completely reversed inhibition by Agenerase, Fortovase, Norvir, and TPGS and reactivated lipase; it diminished inhibition by Kaletra and Viracept but did not completely restore activity. Addition of colipase reversed inhibition by Agenerase solution, Agenerase capsules, and TPGS; inhibition by Kaletra and Fortovase recovered slightly. No compounds tested inhibited trypsin or enterokinase. CONCLUSIONS These results justify evaluating protocols involving coadministration of buffered pancrelipase with protease inhibitors to reduce or eliminate diarrhea and steatorrhea in individuals being treated for HIV.

Abstract
Cystic fibrosis is associated with pancreatic insufficiency and acidic intraluminal conditions that limit the action of pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy, especially that of lipase. Directed evolution combined with rational design was used in the aim of improving the performances of the human pancreatic lipase at acidic pH. We set up a method for screening thousands of lipase variants for activity at low pH. A single round of random mutagenesis yielded one lipase variant with an activity at acidic pH enhanced by approximately 50% on medium- and long-chain triglycerides. Sequence analysis revealed two substitutions (E179G/N406S) located in specific regions, the hydrophobic groove accommodating the sn-1 chain of the triglyceride (E179G) and the surface loop that is likely to mediate lipase/colipase interaction in the presence of lipids (N406S). Interestingly, these two substitutions shifted the chain-length specificity of lipase toward medium- and long-chain triglycerides. Combination of those two mutations with a promising one at the entrance of the catalytic cavity (K80E) negatively affected the lipase activity at neutral pH but not that at acidic pH. Our results provide a basis for the design of improved lipase at acidic pH and identify for the first time key residues associated with chain-length specificity.

Abstract
The conformation of a surface loop, the lid, controls activity of pancreatic triglyceride lipase (PTL) by moving from a position that sterically hinders substrate access to the active site into a new conformation that opens and configures the active site. Movement of the lid is accompanied by a large change in steady state tryptophan fluorescence. Although a change in the microenvironment of Trp-253, a lid residue, could account for the increased fluorescence, the mechanism and tryptophan residues have not been identified. To identify the tryptophan residues responsible for the increased fluorescence and to gain insight into the mechanism of lid opening and the structure of PTL in aqueous solution, we examined the effects of mutating individual tryptophan residues to tyrosine, alanine, or phenylalanine on lipase activity and steady state fluorescence. Substitution of tryptophans 86, 107, 253, and 403 reduced activity against tributyrin with the largest effects caused by substituting Trp-86 and Trp-107. Trp-107 and Trp-253 fluorescence accounts for the increased fluorescence emissions of PTL that is stimulated by tetrahydrolipstatin and sodium taurodeoxycholate. The largest contribution is from Trp-107. Contrary to the prediction from the crystal structure of PTL, Trp-107 is likely exposed to solvent. Both tetrahydrolipstatin and sodium taurodeoxycholate are required to produce the increased fluorescence in PTL. Alone, neither is sufficient. Colipase does not significantly influence the conformational changes leading to increased emission fluorescence. Thus, Trp-107 and Trp-253 contribute to the change in steady state fluorescence that is triggered by mixed micelles of inhibitor and bile salt. Furthermore, the results suggest that the conformation of PTL in solution differs significantly from the conformation in crystals.

Abstract
Colipase is a key element in the lipase-catalyzed hydrolysis of dietary lipids. Although devoid of enzymatic activity, colipase promotes the pancreatic lipase activity in physiological intestinal conditions by anchoring the enzyme at the surface of lipid droplets. Analysis of structures of NMR colipase models and simulations of their interactions with various lipid aggregates, lipid droplet, and bile salt micelle, were carried out to determine and to map the lipid binding sites on colipase. We show that the micelle and the oil droplet bind to the same side of colipase 3D structure, mainly the hydrophobic fingers. Moreover, it appears that, although colipase has a single direction of interaction with a lipid interface, it does not bind in a specific way but rather oscillates between different positions. Indeed, different NMR models of colipase insert different fragments of sequence in the interface, either simultaneously or independently. This supports the idea that colipase finger plasticity may be crucial to adapt the lipase activity to different lipid aggregates.

Abstract
Three colipases were purified from pancreas of two birds (ostrich and turkey) and one mammal (dromedary). After acidic and/or heat treatment and precipitation by sulfate ammonium and then ethanol, cofactors were purified by Sephadex G-50 gel filtration followed by ion-exchange chromatography first on Mono S and then on Mono Q. One molecular form was obtained from each species with a molecular mass of approximately 10 kDa. Cofactors were not glycosylated. The N-terminal sequences of the three purified cofactors showed high sequence homology. A 90 amino acid sequence of the ostrich cofactor was established based on peptide sequences from four different digests of the denaturated protein using trypsin, chymotrypsin, thermolysin, or staphylococcal protease. This sequence exhibited a high degree of homology with chicken and mammal cofactors. Bile salt-inhibited pancreatic lipases from five species were activated to variable extents by colipases from bird and mammal origins. The bird pancreatic lipase-colipase system appears to be functionally similar to homologous lipolytic systems from higher mammals. Our comparative study showed that mammal colipase presents a lower activation level toward bird lipases than the bird counterpart. Three-dimensional modeling of ostrich colipase suggested a structural explanation of this fact.

Abstract
Human pancreatic lipase (HPL, triacylglycerol acylhydrolase, EC 3.1.1.3) is a carboxyl esterase which hydrolyzes insoluble emulsified triglycerides and is essential for the efficient digestion of dietary fats. Though the three-dimensional structure of this enzyme has been determined, monitoring the conformational changes that may accompany the binding of various substrates and inhibitors is still of interest. Because of its sensitivity and ease of use, fluorescence spectroscopy of the intrinsic Trp residues is ideally suited for this purpose. However, the presence of seven Trp residues spread all over the HPL structure renders the interpretation of the fluorescence changes difficult with respect to the identification and location of the conformational or environmental changes taking place at the various Trp residues. In this context, the aim of this work was to investigate the contribution of the individual Trp residues to the fluorescence properties of HPL. To this end, we analyzed the steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence parameters of five single-point mutants in which one Trp residue was substituted with a weakly fluorescent Phe residue. In addition to the Trp residues at positions 30, 86, and 252, strategically located with respect to the active site, we also mutated Trp residues at positions 17 and 402, as representative residues of the HPL N- and C-terminal domains, respectively. Taken together, our data suggested that the solvent-exposed Trp30 residue contributed to at least 44% of the overall fluorescence of wild-type HPL. Moreover, we found that the long-lived fluorescence lifetime (6.77 ns) of wild-type HPL could be specifically attributed to Trp30, a feature that enables selective monitoring of its environmental changes. Additionally, Trp residues at positions 17 and 402 strongly contributed to the 1.61 ns lifetime of HPL, while Trp residues at positions 86 and 252 contributed to the 0.29 ns lifetime.

Abstract
Pancreatic triglyceride lipase (PTL) and its protein cofactor, colipase, are required for efficient dietary triglyceride digestion. In addition to PTL, pancreatic acinar cells synthesize two pancreatic lipase related proteins (PLRP1 and PLRP2), which have a high degree of sequence and structural homology with PTL. PLRP1 has no known activity. PTL and PLRP2 differ in substrate specificity, behavior in bile salts and dependence on colipase. Each protein has a globular amino-terminal (N-terminal) domain, which contains the catalytic site for PTL and PLRP2, and a beta-sandwich carboxyl-terminal (C-terminal) domain, which includes the predominant colipase-binding site for PTL. Inactive and active conformations of PTL have been described. They differ in the position of a surface loop, the lid domain, and of the beta5-loop. In the inactive conformation, the lid covers the active site and, upon activation by bile salt micelles and colipase or by lipid-water interfaces, the lid moves dramatically to open and configure the active site. After the lid movement, PTL and colipase create a large hydrophobic plateau that can interact with the lipid-water interface. A hydrophobic surface loop in the C-terminal domain, the beta5' loop, may also contribute to the interfacial-binding domain of the PTL-colipase complex.

Abstract
Pancreatic triglyceride lipase (PTL) requires colipase for activity. Various constituents in meals and in bile, particularly bile acids, inhibit PTL. Colipase restores activity to lipase in the presence of inhibitory substances like bile acids. Presumably, colipase functions by anchoring and orienting PTL at the oil-water interface. The x-ray structure of the colipase.PTL complex supports this model. In the x-ray structure, colipase has a hydrophobic surface positioned to bind substrate and a hydrophilic surface, lying opposite the hydrophobic surface, with two putative lipase-binding domains, Glu(45)/Asp(89) and Glu(64)/Arg(65). To determine whether the hydrophilic surface interacts with PTL in solution, we introduced mutations into the putative PTL binding domains of human colipase. Each mutant was expressed, purified, and assessed for activity against various substrates. Most of the mutants showed impaired ability to reactivate PTL, with mutations in the Glu(64)/Arg(65) binding site causing the greatest effect. Analysis indicated that the mutations decreased the affinity of the colipase mutants for PTL and prevented the formation of PTL.colipase complexes. The impaired function of the mutants was most apparent when assayed in micellar bile salt solutions. Most mutants stimulated PTL activity normally in monomeric bile salt solutions. We also tested the mutants for their ability to bind substrate and anchor lipase to tributyrin. Even though the ability of the mutants to anchor PTL to an interface decreased in proportion to their activity, each mutant colipase bound to tributyrin to the same extent as wild type colipase. These results demonstrate that the hydrophilic surface of colipase interacts with PTL in solution to form active colipase.PTL complexes, that bile salt micelles influence that binding, and that the proper interaction of colipase with PTL requires the Glu(64)/Arg(65) binding site.

Abstract
Anthrax toxin is a complex of protective antigen (PA, 735 aa), lethal factor (LF, 776 aa), and edema factor (EF, 767 aa). PA binds to cell surface receptors and is cleaved by cell surface proteases into PA63, while LF and EF compete for binding to PA63. The PA63-LF/EF complex is internalized into the cytosol and causes different pathogenic responses in animals and cultured cells. 1-300 amino acid residues of LF have been viewed as the region responsible for the high affinity binding of LF to PA. Amino acid analysis of LF and EF revealed a common stretch of 7 amino acids (147VYYEIGK153). In the present study, each amino acid of this stretch was replaced by alanine at a time. Y148A, Y149A, I151A, and K153A mutants were found to be deficient in their ability to lyse J774A.1 cells and their binding ability to PA63 was drastically reduced. We propose that these four amino acids play a crucial role in the process of binding of LF to PA63.

Abstract
Methylamine dehydrogenase (MADH) and amicyanin form a physiologic complex which is required for interprotein electron transfer. The crystal structure of this protein complex is known, and the importance of certain residues on amicyanin in its interaction with MADH has been demonstrated by site-directed mutagenesis. In this study, site-directed mutagenesis of MADH, kinetic data, and thermodynamic analysis are used to probe the molecular basis for stabilization of the protein complex by an interprotein salt bridge between Arg99 of amicyanin and Asp180 of the alpha subunit of MADH. This paper reports the first site-directed mutagenesis of MADH, as well as the construction, heterologous expression, and characterization of a six-His-tagged MADH. alpha Asp180 of MADH was converted to arginine to examine the effect on complex formation with native and mutant amicyanins. This mutation had no effect on the parameters for methylamine oxidation by MADH, but significantly affected its interaction with amicyanin. Of the native and mutant proteins that were studied, their observed order of affinity for each other was as follows: native MADH and native amicyanin > native MADH and R99D amicyanin > alpha D180R MADH and native amicyanin > alpha D180R MADH and R99D amicyanin, and alpha D180R MADH and R99L amicyanin. The alpha D180R mutation also eliminated the ionic strength dependence of the reaction of MADH with amicyanin that is observed with wild-type MADH. Interestingly, the inverse mutation pair of alpha D180R MADH and R99D amicyanin did not restore the favorable salt bridge, but instead disrupted complex formation much more severely than did either individual mutation. These results are explained using molecular modeling and thermodynamic analysis of the kinetic data to correlate the energy contributions of specific stabilizing and destabilizing interactions that are present in the wild-type and mutant complexes. A model is also proposed to describe the sequence of events that leads to stable complex formation between MADH and amicyanin.

Abstract
Colipase is a small protein cofactor needed by pancreatic lipase for the efficient dietary lipid hydrolysis. It binds to the C-terminal, non-catalytic domain of lipase, thereby stabilising an active conformation and considerably increasing the overall hydrophobic binding site. Structural studies of the complex and of colipase alone have clearly revealed the functionality of its architecture. Interestingly, a structural analogy has recently been discovered between colipase and a domain in a developmental protein (Dickkopf), based on sequence analogy and homology modeling. Whether this structural analogy implies a common function (lipid interaction) remains to be clarified. Structural analogies have also been recognised between the pancreatic lipase C-terminal domain, the N-terminal domains of lipoxygenases and the C-terminal domain of alpha-toxin. These non-catalytic domains in the latter enzymes are important for interaction with membranes. It has not been established if these domains are also involved in eventual protein cofactor binding as is the case for pancreatic lipase.
