Abstract：
:The incorporation of 7-dehydrocholesterol into synthetic phospholipid bilayers altered the distribution of products after photolysis. In liposomes, the relative amounts of 7-dehydrocholesterol and lumisterol were elevated, and tachysterol was reduced from the levels observed in hexane solution. Z to E isomerization of the previtamin to tachysterol is favored in organic solvents. The inhibition of this process is evidence that an ordered lipid matrix places a new constraint on the conformation of the ring B fission product--one in which the configuration is favorable for a return to a cyclized diene. Further, rate enhancements of up to 15-fold were observed for the thermal isomerization of the previtamin to vitamin D3 in liposomes. The free energies of activation for the reaction at 25 degrees C were reduced by 1.3-1.5 kcal/mol in the bilayer environment compared to that of hexane. As this reaction involves the concerted transfer of a hydrogen via a cyclic intermediate, it provides additional evidence for membrane stabilization of an all-cis conformation of the previtamin. Photoproduct ratios were also studied for 7-dehydrocholesterol adsorbed to a variety of solid supports. That nonspecific interactions of 7-dehydrocholesterol with lipid can influence product formation may have important implications with respect to the mechanism of vitamin D3 biosynthesis.
