[The effect of cationic surface-active agents on the Escherichia coli ATPase].
The authors studied the effect of cationic surfactants (CS), such as alkyl(C8H17-C18H37)dimethylbenzylammonium (I), alkyl(C8H17-C16H33)benzyltrimethylammonium (II), alkyl(C8H17-C16H33)di-beta-hydroxyethylbenzylammonium (III) chlorides and chlorhydrate of glycine decyl ester (IV) on the ATPase activity of E. coli 1257 cell, spheroplasts, and isolated membranes. Changes in the ATPase activity of the E. coli cells and spheroplasts were found to depends on the concentration and the structure of the cationic surfactants. The removal of the cell wall increased the destroying effect of CS on the cytoplasmic membranes and enhanced the ATPase inhibition. The compounds with 16 and 18 carbon atom radical had the highest inhibitory effect. The action of cationic surfactants on the membrane is accompanied by changes in the protein and phospholipid composition and by significant solubilization of ATPase with pronounced inactivation of the enzyme. The kinetics of inhibition of E. coli membrane ATPase was studied to the presence of the homological series I and IV. The cationic surfactants under study inhibited the ATP hydrolysis catalysed by E. coli ATPase by a mixed type mechanism. Ki = 58.21.10(-4) M for IC10H21; 10.67.10(-4) M for IC12H25; 0.58.10(-4) M for IC16H33; 0.16.10(-4) M for IC18H37, and 5.93.10(-4) M for IV.
