Inhibition of lipases by proteins. A kinetic study with dicaprin monolayers.
We report further investigations on protein inhibition of pancreatic and microbial lipases carried out with the monolayer technique. When beta-lactoglobulin A, melittin, serum albumin, myoglobin, and a protein inhibiting lipase from soybean were preincubated with a dicaprin film at a surface pressure of 35 dynes/cm, no activity was detected with horse pancreatic or Rhizopus delemar lipases. By contrast, Rhizopus arrhizus and Geotrichum candidum lipase activities were not impaired under the same conditions. Experiments using mixed lipid-protein film transfer clearly show that the inhibition of pancreatic lipase is due to the protein associated with lipid and not caused by direct protein-enzyme interaction in the aqueous phase. Three parameters were used to determine the surface properties of the various proteins at the dicaprin/water interface; namely, the initial rate of surface pressure increase, (delta pi/delta t)t = 0, the maximal surface pressure increase, delta pi max, and the critical surface pressure, pi c. A positive correlation was observed between values of (delta pi/delta t)t = 0 of proteins and their respective capacity to inhibit pancreatic and R. delemar lipases. By contrast, there was no apparent correlation with the two other parameters, delta pi max or pi c.
