| This lipase associates with membrane by its hydrophobic surface (near the bound phosphatidyl choline) according to our calculations. That is inconsistent with two different orientations of this lipase described in ESR studies (Hedin et al. 2002, 2005). Under the experimental conditions, the protein was probably in the closed state (see 1dt5 and 1tib) and associated electrostatically only with membrane surface (no penetration) through the alternative charged spots, since the ionic strength was very low. Authors used "exposure factors" of spin-labeled residues (determined using the negatively charged spin-relaxation agent Crox), instead of the standard membrane penetration depth parameter, which is based on the contrast between two uncharged polar and nonpolar agents. The latter parameter is more reliable as follows from EPR studies of transmembrane proteins and C2 domains. |
