Under optimal conditions, assay for pure human gastric lipase was carried out with short- and long-chain triacylglycerol emulsions. Maximal specific activities of 1160 and 620 U/mg were obtained with tributyrin and soybean emulsion, respectively. We observed that with a tributyrin substrate, bovine serum albumin or bile salts must be added before the addition of the enzyme in order to prevent its irreversible interfacial denaturation. With long-chain triacylglycerols as substrate, a decrease with time in the rate of hydrolysis was associated with release of protonated long-chain fatty acids. The inhibitory effect of protonated fatty acids was also observed using tributyrin at pH 3.0. These observations support the conclusion that human gastric lipase shows no intrinsic specificity for short-chain triacylglycerols and that its apparent specificity is modulated by pH and presence of amphiphile in the incubation medium. Our conclusions support the view that, in the human, gastric lipolysis may play an important role in long-chain fat digestion.

The molecular cloning of a cDNA coding for human gastric lipase and its expression in yeast is described. A lipase present in human gastric aspirates was purified and its N-terminal amino-acid sequence was determined. This was found to be homologous with the N-terminal sequence of rat lingual lipase. A cDNA library was constructed from mRNA isolated from human stomach tissue and probed with cloned rat lingual lipase DNA. One clone, pGL17, consisting of approximately 1450 base-pairs, contained the entire coding sequence for a human gastric lipase. The amino-acid sequence from the isolated protein and the DNA sequence obtained from the cloned gene indicated that human gastric lipase consists of a 379 amino acid polypeptide with an unglycosylated Mr of 43,162. Human gastric lipase and rat lingual lipase amino-acid sequences were closely homologous but were unrelated to porcine pancreatic lipase apart from a 6 amino-acid sequence around the essential Ser-152 of porcine pancreatic lipase. A yeast expression plasmid containing the phosphoglycerate kinase promoter and terminator sequences together with the human gastric lipase gene was constructed. Yeast transformed with this vector synthesised the lipolytically active enzyme.

Using soybean triacylglycerols emulsified with egg lecithin we have studied, in vitro, the influence of substrate prehydrolysis by human gastric lipase upon subsequent degradation by the pancreatic lipase-co-lipase system. Fatty acids liberated by pure human gastric lipase or juice trigger immediate activity of human pancreatic lipase. Gastric lipolysis appears to be of prime importance for dietary lipid digestion in human.

It is now becoming clear from the abundant lipolytic enzyme literature that any meaningful interpretation of inhibition data has to take into account the kinetics of enzyme action at the lipid/water interface. We attempt in the present paper to provide a kinetic model applicable to water-insoluble competitive inhibitors, in order to quantitatively compare the results obtained at several laboratories. We derived kinetic equations applicable to the pre-steady state as well as steady state. By measuring the inhibitory power, as described in the present paper, it is possible to obtain a normalized estimation of the relative efficiency of various potential inhibitors. Furthermore, with the kinetic treatment developed here, it is possible to make quantitative comparisons with the same inhibitor placed under various physico-chemical situations, i.e., micellar or monolayer states.

Abstract A few examples are given of regulation by the “interfacial quality” of some biological activities. Experiments with monolayers have the unique advantage that the arrangement and packing of the molecules can be easily measured and controlled. The first part is devoted to proteins which do not degrade lipids. Soluble cardiotoxins are generally injected into the subphase below a preformed lipid monolayer and measurements are taken either at constant surface area or at constant surface pressure. These experiments can give information on the penetration capacity of the protein into the interface and its lipid specificity, with direct access to the area of the protein segment interacting with lipids. Most intrinsic membrane proteins are insoluble in water. In the absence of detergent they aggregate and display no affinity for lipid interfaces. These proteins can be spread from an organic solvent solution but with the risk of being denatured. In order to circumvent this difficulty a method for spreading an aqueous suspension of lipoproteins or natural membrane vesicles was developed. This spreading method allows the formation of lipoprotein films retaining biological activities and native membrane constituents. In the second part, the use of lipid monolayers as substrates for lipolytic enzymes is reviewed. The monolayer technique permits an accurate study to be made of the influence of surface pressure and protein cofactors on the hydrolysis velocity and lag time in lipolysis. Two examples are developed: first, the assistance provided by colipase during the penetration of phospholipid films by pancreatic lipase; second the activation by apolipoprotein CII of phospholipid-monolayer hydrolysis by lipoprotein lipase. The monolayer technique is ideally suited to the study of the mode of action of lipolytic enzymes on monolayers of controlled “interfacial quality”.

For the first time, we have shown that a stereospecific interaction occurs between porcine pancreatic phospholipase A2 and a monomolecular film of amidophospholipid used as inhibitor. Direct binding experiments, using radiolabelled phospholipase A2, showed that 13 times more enzyme was bound to phospholipid films of the L series by comparison with films of the D series. These results were confirmed by indirect binding studies using re-spreading experiments. Kinetic studies of the porcine pancreatic PLA2, using enantiomeric acyl-amino phospholipid analogues, have shown that: (1) inhibitors of the L series are more potent than inhibitors of the D series, (2) inhibitors having a negative charge are more potent than zwitterionic inhibitors, (3) inhibitory power values are greater when evaluated in micellar system than in a the monolayer system, (4) the inhibitory power increases continuously with surface pressure.

The supernatant extracts of the chl A and chl B mutants of Escherichia coli K 12, the phospholipids of which are labeled by growth in 32 P or [2- 3H]glycerol media, contain 20 times more radioactivity than the supernatant extract of the wild-type strain grown under the same conditions. We have observed that, after complementation, 80% of the radioactivity previously contained by Extracts A and B is incorporated into reconstituted particles. The chromatography of 3H-labeled Extract B on DEAE-cellulose and followed by gel filtration of radioactive fractions on Sephadex G-200 has shown that the phospholipids of Extract B are only bound to soluble proteins and not to fragments of membranes; it can be assumed that they have been solubilized in the form of a lipid-protein complex by cell breakage. When Extracts A and B are treated by phospholipase C (phosphatidylcholine cholinephosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.4.3) before being mixed together, an inhibition of the reconstitution of nitrate reductase activity which is proportional to the phospholipase C concentration and the length of treatment is observed. The analysis of lipids and phospholipids of particles (Peak I, Peak II and Peak III) formed during complementation and reconstituted nitrate reductase shows that their phospholipid contents (phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylserine) and especially that of Peak II (d equals 1.18) are closely related to that of native particles from the wild-type strain. These results allow one to propose a hypothesis explaining the mechanism involved in complementation.

Abstract Mechanical treatments of cell suspensions of Escherichia coli K 12 strain PA 601, and its two mutants chl A− and chl B−, in a buffer without Mg2+ lead to partial solubilization of membrane-bound ATPase. After ultracentrifugation of cell-free extracts, ATPase can be recovered in the soluble fraction. Contrary to membrane ATPase, the soluble enzyme has the following properties: (1) it is insensitive to N,N′-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide; (2) heat-inactivation kinetics show a reactivation in the first 3 min and the half-time is 15 min; (3) ADP is a substrate. In the course of complementation between soluble fractions of mutants chl A− and chl B−, a part of soluble ATPase is incorporated into the newly formed particles. The specific activity of these particles is nearly the same as that of native particles; the ATPase bound to native membrane and the ATPase bound to the newly-formed particles both have the same biochemical properties.

We have compared the effect of several proteins, including melittin, beta-lactoglobulin A, serum albumin, ovalbumin and myoglobin, on the hydrolysis of tributyrin and triolein by lipases from various origins. All proteins tested inactivate pancreatic lipase in absence of colipase and bile salt. Inhibition is not significantly reversed by colipase in absence of bile salt except in systems containing tributyrin and melittin or triolein and beta-lactoglobulin A. In all other cases, activation of pancreatic lipase by colipase in presence of inhibitory protein requires the presence of bile salt. Lipase from Rhizopus delemar is also inhibited by the proteins that inactivate pancreatic lipase. In contrast, the activity of lipase from Rhizopus arrhizus is not affected by the proteins in the same concentration range. Inhibition of lipase activity by amphiphiles such as proteins or detergents appears to be a general phenomenon not directly related to a decrease in tension at the triacylglycerol-water interface. Inhibition could be the result of desorption of lipase from its substrate due to a change in interfacial quality.

Several important points seem to have been underestimated during gastrointestinal lipolysis studies. First, it is evident that only low mechanical forces are responsible for fat emulsification in vivo. It was reported that the fraction of dietary triacylglycerols hydrolyzed and adsorbed in vivo was higher following the ingestion of an emulsified meal than after ingesting a similar quantity of unemulsified fat. The existence of a lingual lipase suggests that triacylglycerol hydrolysis occurs to a certain extent in the stomach. It was proposed that this reaction is the first step in dietary fat digestion and that the amphiphilic lipids resulting therefrom facilitate triacylglycerol emulsification (1). This was directly confirmed by Linthorst et al. (2), who showed that the combination of bile salts and lipolytic products present in the intestine participated in the emulsification of triacylglycerols with low shear forces. Another important consequence of the significant prehydrolysis of alimentary triglycerides by a pregastric esterase is that diglycerides are probably more appropriate physiological substrates than triglycerides for pancreatic lipase.
