The insertion of D-beta-hydroxybutyrate apodehydrogenase into phospholipid monolayers and phospholipid vesicles.
The strong interaction of D-beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase with phospholipid monomolecular films is demonstrated by the surface pressure increase of a film compressed up to 33 mN/m. Although the D-beta-hydroxybutyrate apodehydrogenase was able to penetrate many phospholipid monolayers, it interacted preferentially with negatively charged monolayers such as those made from diphosphatidylglycerol. The weakest interaction was found with phosphatidylcholine, which is the reactivating phospholipid for the enzyme. These interactions were dependent on the phospholipid chain length, ionic strength, and pH. At basic pH the apoenzyme lost its specificity for negatively charged phospholipids, suggesting the deprotonation of a cationic amino acid residue of the enzyme polypeptide chain. The charge effects are in agreement with results obtained using phospholipid vesicles. Beside the electrostatic interactions, the influence of phospholipid chain length and the ionic strength indicate that D-beta-hydroxybutyrate apodehydrogenase penetrates into the hydrophobic part of the lipid interface.
