Abstract:
:The thermotropic behavior and molecular properties of 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (POPE) and 1-palmitoyl-2-dihydrosterculoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (PDSPE) have been investigated by 2H NMR spectroscopy using samples selectively labeled at the 5'-, 9'-, 10'-, and 16'-positions of the sn-2 chains. Comparison with the corresponding phosphocholine analogues (POPC and PDSPC), obtained as intermediate synthetic products, was used to monitor the role of the polar head group. Replacement of the choline moiety by ethanolamine increased the gel to liquid-crystal transition temperature by 10-32 degrees C and led to a significantly higher ordering of the fatty acyl chains in the liquid-crystalline bilayer state. The lateral compression effect, due to the smaller area per polar head group in PE, results in a bilayer to hexagonal phase transition at elevated temperatures. The effects on both PC and PE due to replacement of the olefinic group by a cyclopropane unit are similar. A decrease in the temperature of the gel to liquid-crystal phase transition, Tc, is observed upon introduction of a cyclopropane ring; it goes from 26 degrees C in POPE to approximately 10 degrees C in PDSPE. In addition, a very significant broadening of the transition profile is observed. These observations are consistent with the poor packing ability of mixed saturated and cyclopropane-containing chains due to the bulky substituent effect. The temperature of the bilayer-hexagonal phase transition of PE samples was decreased by 15-20 degrees C on replacement of oleoyl chains by dihydrosterculoyl chains at the sn-2 position.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
