On the binding of bile salt to pancreatic lipase.

The binding of taurodeoxycholate to pancreatic lipase and a few other proteins has been studied with equilibrium dialysis and in gel filtration experiments. A three compartment dialysis cell has been used; with this cell, complete equilibration is not necessary for calculation of the binding even at bile salt concentrations above the critical micellar concentration. The results indicate that taurodeoxycholate does not bind to lipase below the critical micellar concentration, that the binding starts in the critical micellar concentration range of the bile salt and reaches around 12 mol taurodeoxycholate per mol of lipase at taurodeoxycholate concentrations well above the critical micellar concentration. Previous results indicating a binding of maximally 1-2 mol taurodeoxycholate/mol lipase were too low, depending on the experimental conditions in which complete equilibration was not obtained. The binding isotherm for taurodeoxycholate to lipase is similar to that for co-lipase; colipase and lipase in mixture bind as much taurodeoxycholate as the sum for the single proteins. Taurodeoxycholate binds to ribonuclease and chymotrypsinogen to a similar extent as to lipase.

Binding of bile salts to pancreatic colipase and lipase.

The binding of conjugated bile salts to pancreatic colipase and lipase has been studied by equilibrium dialysis and gel filtration. The results indicate that at physiological ionic strength and pH, conjugated bile salts bind as micelles to colipase: 12-15 moles/mole of colipase for the dihydroxy conjugates and 2-4 for the trihydroxy conjugates. No binding of bile salt takes place from monomeric solutions. Under the same experimental conditions, only 1-2 moles of conjugated dihydroxy bile salts bind to pancreatic lipase.

On the interactions between pancreatic lipase and colipase and the substrate, and the importance of bile salts.

The interactions between pancreatic lipase and colipase and the substrate and the effect of bile salts on these interactions have been investigated by the use of kinetic experiments and studies on the semiquantitative phase distribution of lipase and colipase activities. The results suggest that lipase binds to hydrophobic interfaces with partial irreversible inactivation. Bile salts in the range of micellar concentrations and above a pH of about 6.5 displace lipase from this binding, resulting in a reversible in activation. At pH values below about 6.5, lipase binds strongly to the substrate even in the presence of bile salt, and a low activity peak is seen around pH 5.5. This is the result of the binding of lipase to the "supersubstrate" and the activity of the catalytic site. In the presence of bile salt, colipase promotes the binding of lipase to the "supersubstrate" but not to other hydrophobic interfaces, and catalytic activity is reestablished. Kinetic data indicate that the binding between colipase and lipase in the presence of substrate is strong and occurs in an approximately stoichiometric relationship.
