[Effect of phosphatidic acid on the reaction of linoleic acid oxidation by 5-lipooxygenase from potatoes].

Influence of anionogenic phospholipid of phosphatidic acid (PA) on oxidation of linoleic acid by 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) from Solanum tuberosum was studied. The influence of PA was studied in micellar system which consisted of mixed micelles of linolenic acid (LK), Lubrol PX and different quantity of enzyme effector PA. The reaction was initiated by addition of 5-LO. It was established that 5-LO had two pHopt. in the presence of 50 microM phosphatidic acid: pH 5.0 and 6.9. In concentration of 50 microM PA was able to activate 5-LO 15 times at pH 5.0. The reaction maximum velocity (Vmax) coincided with Vmax of lipoxygenase reaction without the effector at pH 6.9 under such conditions. It was found that 30-50 microM phospholipid in the reaction mixture decreased the concentration of half saturation by the substrate by 43-67%. The enzyme demonstrated positive cooperation in respect of the substrate, the reaction is described by the Hill equation. Hill coefficient value (h) of the substrate was 3.34 +/- 0.22 (pH 6.9) and 5.61 +/- 0.88 (pH 5.0), that is with the change of pH to acidic region the number of substrate molecules increased and they could interact with the enzyme molecule. In case of substrate insufficiency the enzyme demonstrated positive cooperation of PA, it added from 4 to 3 effectors' molecules at pH 5.0, that is the phospholipid acted as the allosteric regulator of 5-LO. A comparative analysis of the influence of 4-hydroxy-TEMPO displayed, that the level of nonenzymatic processes in the case of physiological pH values was lower by 15-50% in the presence of PA in the range of 30-80 microM than without the effector.
