Time-resolved fluorescence of intestinal and liver fatty acid binding proteins: role of fatty acyl CoA and fatty acid.
The effect of fatty acyl CoA and fatty acid on the solution structure and dynamics of two intestinal enterocyte fatty acid binding proteins, intestinal (I-FABP) and liver (L-FABP), was examined by time-resolved fluorescence of FABP aromatic amino acid residues. I-FABP Trp displayed two rotational correlation times, 6.6 and 0.4 ns. reflecting motion of the protein as a whole and segmental mobility of Trp. Neither oleoyl CoA, oleic acid, nor CoASH altered overall I-FABP rotational correlation time. However, oleic acid and CoASH increased I-FABP Trp segmental mobility, while oleoyl CoA and CoASH decreased I-FABP Trp limiting anisotropy (order). The angle of I-FABP Trp "wobbling in a cone" was increased by ligands in the order oleoyl CoA > CoASH > oleic acid. L-FABP Trp segmental mobility. L-FABP overall rotational motion, in contrast to that of I-FABP, was significantly increased by ligands in the order oleoyl CoA > oleic acid > CoASH. cis-Parinaric acid and cis-parinaroyl CoA bound to L-FABP also reflected overall L-FABP motion but yielded longer rotational correlation times, 8.2 and 10.7 ns, than the respective apo-FABPs. Such effects were not observed with I-FABP. Finally, both cis-parinaric acid and cis-parinaroyl CoA were much less ordered in the I-FABP ligand binding site than with L-FABP. These observations suggest that the rotational dynamics of L-FABP and its conformation are more sensitive to ligands than I-FABP. Further, ligands such as fatty acids, fatty acyl CoAs, and/or CoASH differentially modulate the I-FABP and L-FABP dynamics, and the ligand binding sites of these proteins differ in their ability to order the ligands.
