  • Biochemical Properties of Pancreatic Colipase from the Common Stingray
    Ben Bacha et al. Lipids in Health and Disease 2011, 10:69 http://www.lipidworld.com/content/10/1/69 RESEARCH Open Access Biochemical properties of pancreatic colipase from the common stingray Dasyatis pastinaca Abir Ben Bacha†, Aida Karray†, Lobna Daoud, Emna Bouchaala, Madiha Bou Ali, Youssef Gargouri and Yassine Ben Ali* Background: Pancreatic colipase is a required co-factor for pancreatic lipase, being necessary for its activity during hydrolysis of dietary triglycerides in the presence of bile salts. In the intestine, colipase is cleaved from a precursor molecule, procolipase, through the action of trypsin. This cleavage yields a peptide called enterostatin knoswn, being produced in equimolar proportions to colipase. Results: In this study, colipase from the common stingray Dasyatis pastinaca (CoSPL) was purified to homogeneity. The purified colipase is not glycosylated and has an apparent molecular mass of around 10 kDa. The NH2-terminal sequencing of purified CoSPL exhibits more than 55% identity with those of mammalian, bird or marine colipases. CoSPL was found to be less effective activator of bird and mammal pancreatic lipases than for the lipase from the same specie. The apparent dissociation constant (Kd) of the colipase/lipase complex and the apparent Vmax of the colipase-activated lipase values were deduced from the linear curves of the Scatchard plots. We concluded that Stingray Pancreatic Lipase (SPL) has higher ability to interact with colipase from the same species than with the mammal or bird ones. Conclusion: The fact that colipase is a universal lipase cofactor might thus be explained by a conservation of the colipase-lipase interaction site.

  • Absorption and Metabolism of Lipid in Humans
    Lipids in Modern Nutrition, edited by M. Horisberger and U. Bracco. Nestle Nutrition, Vevey/Raven Press, New York © 1987. Absorption and Metabolism of Lipid in Humans Patrick Tso and Stuart W. Weidman Departments of Physiology and Medicine, The University of Tennessee Center for the Health Sciences, Memphis, Tennessee 38163 DIETARY LIPIDS Dietary lipids can provide as much as 40% of the daily caloric intake in the Western diet. The daily dietary intake of lipid by humans in the Western world ranges between 60 and 100 g (1,2). Triglyceride (TG) is the major dietary fat in humans. Long-chain fatty acids such as the oleate (18:1) and palmitate (16:0) are the major fatty acids (FA) present. In most infant diets, fat becomes a major en- ergy source. In human milk and in human formulas, 40% to 50% of the total calo- ries are present as fat (3). The human small intestine is presented daily with other lipids such as phospholipid (PL) and cholesterol and other sterols. Both PL and cholesterol are major constituents of bile. In humans, the biliary PL is a major contributor of the luminal PL. It has been calculated that 11 to 12 g of biliary PL enters the small intestinal lumen daily, whereas the dietary contribution is 1 to 2 g (4). The predominant sterol in the Western diet is cholesterol. However, plant sterols account for 20% to 25% of total dietary sterol (5-7). It is beyond the scope of this review to discuss the absorption of lipid soluble vitamins, and the interested readers should refer to the excellent review by Barrowman (8).

  • Quantitative Trait Loci Influencing Cholesterol and Phospholipid
    Quantitative trait loci influencing cholesterol and phospholipid phenotypes map to chromosomes that contain genes regulating blood pressure in the spontaneously hypertensive rat. A Bottger, … , T W Kurtz, M Pravenec J Clin Invest. 1996;98(3):856-862. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI118858. Research Article The frequent coincidence of hypertension and dyslipidemia suggests that related genetic factors might underlie these common risk factors for cardiovascular disease. To investigate whether quantitative trait loci (QTLs) regulating lipid levels map to chromosomes known to contain genes regulating blood pressure, we used a genome scanning approach to map QTLs influencing cholesterol and phospholipid phenotypes in a large set of recombinant inbred strains and in congenic strains derived from the spontaneously hypertensive rat and normotensive Brown-Norway (BN.Lx) rat fed normal and high cholesterol diets. QTLs regulating lipid phenotypes were mapped by scanning the genome with 534 genetic markers. A significant relationship (P < 0.00006) was found between basal HDL2 cholesterol levels and the D19Mit2 marker on chromosome 19. Analysis of congenic strains of spontaneously hypertensive rat indicated that QTLs regulating postdietary lipid phenotypes exist also on chromosomes 8 and 20. Previous studies in the recombinant inbred and congenic strains have demonstrated the presence of blood pressure regulatory genes in corresponding segments of chromosomes 8, 19, and 20. These findings provide support for the hypothesis that blood pressure and certain lipid subfractions can be modulated by linked genes or perhaps even the same genes.

Pancreatic lipase related protein 1 (PLR1) is also found in pancreatic secretions and may perform a regulatory role in lipolysis; PLR2 catalyses pancreatic triglyceride and galactolipase reactions while PLR3 may serve a related but unknown lipase function. Comparative PTL, PLR1, PLR2 and PLR3 amino acid sequences and structures and gene locations and sequences were examined using data from several vertebrate genome projects. Methods: Sequence alignments and conserved predicted secondary and tertiary structures were studied and key amino acid residues and domains identified based on previous reports on human and pig PTL. Comparative analyses of vertebrate PTL-like genes were conducted using the UC Santa Cruz Genome Browser. Phylogeny studies investigated the evolution of these vertebrate PTL-like genes.

  • Physiological Parameters Governing the Action of Pancreatic Lipase

Colipase-dependent pancreatic lipase is believed to be the major gastrointestinal enzyme involved in catalysis of lipid ester bonds. There is scant literature on the action of pancreatic lipase under the range of physiological conditions that occur within the human small intestine, and the literature that does exist is often contradictory. Due to the importance of pancreatic lipase activity to nutrition and weight management, the present review aims to assess the current body of knowledge with regards to the physiology behind the action of this unique gastrointestinal enzyme system. Existing data would suggest that pancreatic lipase activity is affected by intestinal pH, the presence of colipase and bile salts, but not by the physiological range of Ca ion concentration (as is commonly assumed). The control of secretion of pancreatic lipase and its associated factors appears to be driven by gastrointestinal luminal content, particularly the presence of acid or digested proteins and fats in the duodenal lumen.

  • Structural Characterization of the Human Proteome
    Article Structural Characterization of the Human Proteome Arne Mu¨ller,1 Robert M. MacCallum,1,4 and Michael J.E. Sternberg1,2,3 1Biomolecular Modelling Laboratory, Cancer Research UK, London, United Kingdom; 2Department of Biological Sciences, Structural Bioinformatics Group, Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine, South Kensington, London, United Kingdom This paper reports an analysis of the encoded proteins (the proteome) of the genomes of human, fly, worm, yeast, and representatives of bacteria and archaea in terms of the three-dimensional structures of their globular domains together with a general sequence-based study. We show that 39% of the human proteome can be assigned to known structures. We estimate that for 77% of the proteome, there is some functional annotation, but only 26% of the proteome can be assigned to standard sequence motifs that characterize function. Of the human protein sequences, 13% are transmembrane proteins, but only 3% of the residues in the proteome form membrane-spanning regions. There are substantial differences in the composition of globular domains of transmembrane proteins between the proteomes we have analyzed. Commonly occurring structural superfamilies are identified within the proteome. The frequencies of these superfamilies enable us to estimate that 98% of the human proteome evolved by domain duplication, with four of the 10 most duplicated superfamilies specific for multicellular organisms. The zinc-finger superfamily is massively duplicated in human compared to fly and worm, and occurrence of domains in repeats is more common in metazoa than in single cellular organisms. Structural superfamilies over- and underrepresented in human disease genes have been identified.

  • Principles of Physiology of Lipid Digestion
    282 Principles of Physiology of Lipid Digestion E. Bauer*, S. Jakob1 and R. Mosenthin Institute of Animal Nutrition, University of Hohenheim, Emil-Wolff-Str. 10, 70599 Stuttgart, Germany ABSTRACT : The processing of dietary lipids can be distinguished in several sequential steps, including their emulsification, hydrolysis and micellization, before they are absorbed by the enterocytes. Emulsification of lipids starts in the stomach and is mediated by physical forces and favoured by the partial lipolysis of the dietary lipids due to the activity of gastric lipase. The process of lipid digestion continues in the duodenum where pancreatic triacylglycerol lipase (PTL) releases 50 to 70% of dietary fatty acids. Bile salts at low concentrations stimulate PTL activity, but higher concentrations inhibit PTL activity. Pancreatic triacylglycerol lipase activity is regulated by colipase, that interacts with bile salts and PTL and can release bile salt mediated PTL inhibition. Without colipase, PTL is unable to hydrolyse fatty acids from dietary triacylglycerols, resulting in fat malabsorption with severe consequences on bioavailability of dietary lipids and fat-soluble vitamins. Furthermore, carboxyl ester lipase, a pancreatic enzyme that is bile salt-stimulated and displays wide substrate reactivities, is involved in lipid digestion. The products of lipolysis are removed from the water-oil interface by incorporation into mixed micelles that are formed spontaneously by the interaction of bile salts. Monoacylglycerols and phospholipids enhance the ability of bile salts to form mixed micelles. Formation of mixed micelles is necessary to move the non-polar lipids across the unstirred water layer adjacent to the mucosal cells, thereby facilitating absorption. (Asian-Aust. J.
