Abstract:
:The importance of the surrounding lipid environment on the availability of glycolipid carbohydrate for ligand binding was demonstrated by studying the influence of phosphatidylcholine fatty acid chain length on binding of verotoxins (VT1 and VT2c) to their specific cell surface receptor, globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) in the presence of auxiliary lipids both in a microtitre plate surface bilayer film and in a liposome membrane model system. In the microtitre assay, both VT1 and VT2c binding to Gb3 was increased as a function of decreasing PC acyl chain length likely resulting in increased Gb3 exposure. In the liposome assay VT1 binding was similarly modulated, however the effect of VT2c binding was more complex and did not follow a simple function of increased carbohydrate exposure. Earlier work established that C22:1 and C18:1Gb3 fatty acid homologues were the preferred Gb3 receptor containing liposomes, but in C14PC liposomes, binding to C22:1Gb3 (but not C18:1Gb3) was elevated such that this Gb3 species now became the preferred receptor for both toxins. This change in verotoxin/Gb3 homologue binding selectivity in the presence of C14PC did not occur in the microtitre bilayer format. These results are consistent with our proposal that these toxins recognize different epitopes on the Gb3 oligosaccharide. We infer that relative availability of these epitopes for toxin binding in an artificial bilayer is influenced not only by the exposure due to the discrepancy between the fatty acyl chain lengths of Gb3 and PC, but by the physical mode of presentation of the bilayer structure. Such acyl chain length differences have a more marked effect in a supported bilayer film whereas only the largest discrepancies affect Gb3 receptor function in liposomes. The basis of phospholipid modulation of glycolipid carbohydrate accessibility for receptor function is likely complex and will involve phase separation, gel/liquid crystalline transition, packing and lateral mobility within the bilayer, suggesting that such parameters should be considered in the assessment of glycolipid receptor function in cells.
