摘要

Locusta migratoria apolipophorin ill (apoLp-m) is a helix bundle exchangeable apolipoprotein that reversibly binds to lipoprotein surfaces. Structural reorganization of its five amphipathic a-helices enables the transition from the lipid-free to lipid-bound state. ApoLp-m-induced transformation of dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) bilayer vesicles into smaller discoidal complexes is enhanced as a function of decreasing pH, with maximal transformation occurring at pH 3.5. Over the entire pH range studied, apoLp-m retains nearly all of its secondary structure content. Whereas no changes in fluorescence emission maximum of the two Trp residues in apoLp-m were observed in the pH range from 7.0 to 4.0, a further decrease in pH resulted in a strong red shift. Near-UV circular dichroism spectra of apoLp-m showed well-defined extrema (at 286 and 292 nm) between pH 7.0 and pH 4.0, which were attributed to Trpl15. Below pH 4.0, these extrema collapsed, indicating a less rigid environment for Trpl15. Similarly, the fluorescence intensity of 8-anilinonaphthalene-l-sulfonate in the presence of apoLp- ill increased 4-fold below pH 4.0, indicating exposure of hydrophobic sites in the protein in this pH range. Taken together, the data suggest two conformational states of the protein. In the flfSt state between pH 7.0 and pH 4.0, apoLp-m retains a nativelike helix bundle structure. The second state, found between pH 3.0 and pH 4.0, is reminiscent of a molten globule, wherein tertiary structure contacts are disrupted without a significant loss of secondary structure content. In both states DMPC vesicle transformation is enhanced by lowering the solution pH, reaching an optimum in the second state. The correlation between tertiary structure and lipid binding activity suggests that helix bundle organization is a determinant of apoLp-m lipid binding activity.
