Effect of Membrane Phospholipid Compositional Changes on Adenylate Cyclase in LM Cells? Victor H. Engelhard,$ Michael Glaser, and Dan R. Storm*,§
ABSTRACT: Adenylate cyclase activities were examined in
mouse L M cell membranes which had been supplemented with polar head groups and/or fatty acids. Basal, fluoride-, and PGEl-stimulated activities varied systematically with changes in phospholipid composition, and PGEl-stimulated activities correlated with the average degree of unsaturation of the phospholipid fatty acids or with the primary amino group character of the phospolipid polar head groups. In addition, the K , for A T P of basal adenylate cyclase was systematically changed by both polar head group and fatty acid supplementation. Alteration of the membrane lipid composition also changed the temperature dependence of the enzyme and the
A d e n y l a t e cyclase is associated with the plasma membranes of a number of animal cells (Butcher et ai., 1965; Pohl et al., 1971a; Bilezikian & Aurbach, 1974; Engelhard et al., 1976a)

lag time between addition of PGEl and the onset of a change in catalytic rate. However, none of the alterations in the enzyme activity could be correlated with the viscosities of supplemented membranes and, instead, seemed to be characteristic for a specific polar head group or fatty acid composition. The data suggest a specific interaction of the enzyme with phospholipids and indicate that structural features of phospholipids may play a role in regulating adenylate cyclase activity. It is proposed that adenylate cyclase can exist in several different conformations in the membrane depending upon the phospholipid composition.
and has also been reported to be associated with particulate fractions of many other cell types. Several studies have implicated the importance of membrane lipids for adenylate cyclase activity and hormone stimulation. For example, membranes have been treated with nonionic detergents (Sutherland et al., 1962), digitonin (Pohl et al., 1971b), phospholipases Present address: Department of Biochemistry, Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02 146. 8 Present address: Department of Pharmacology, School of Medicine, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington 98105.

I n v:c:%ral studies, readdition of phospholipids to treated mcnilies has resulted in restoration of basal activity or hormone .-Il,iiulation to an extent that was dependent upon phospholipid ~ ~ ~ Jhead l d r group compositions (Pohl et al., 1971b; Levey. 197 I : ttctlij et al., 1972). However, the enzyme from different tissucs ii!treated wiith different agents exhibited varying requirements fui. phospholipids. This suggested that lo ,::-tivity might result from actions of these phospholipids other c!t:jii specific interactions with adenylate cyclase. There are t i b o uncertaintiea regarding the physical state of the added ;.iiospholipids and of the enzyme both before and after read!iiiioti of phospolipids. Several other experimental approaches have also been em;>!(ped to evaluate the importance of membrane lipids for srwt)'late cyclase activities. For example, Puchwein et al. re31 i t ed t he reversible in hi bi t i on of cat ec hola m i ne s t i m ul a t i on iden) late cyclase using filipin. which complexes cholesterol iclruein et al., 1974). Orly & Schramm have demonstrated i h t t the addition of free unsaturated fatty acids to erythrocyte liiL.nibranesenhanced isoproterenol stimulation of adenylate lase up to 25-fold (Orly & Schramni, 1975). In addition, mday et al. fused phospholipid vesicles with membranes and erved changes in both the temperature dependence and : ~ ~ i i v i of t y adenylate cyclase (Houslay et al., 1976). Z niethod which avoids some of the difficulties associated + ' i h reconstitution studies is the in vivo modification of the rwinbraiie lipid composition. Brivio-Haugland et al. observed ,i!:nificant changes in basal and hormone-stimulated aden) late se when rats were fed an essential fatty acid deficient diet ,io-Haugland et al., 1976).

anolamine shows the effect of successive removal of methyl groups from the choline nitrogen atom on adenylate cyclase activity. Removal of the first methyl group led to a 36% increase in basal and a 35% increase in PGEI-stimulated activities. Thus, no change in the degree of hormone stimulation was observed. Removal of the second methyl group resulted in no change in basal activity, but did cause an increase in PGEl-stimulated activity, such that an increase in hormone stimulation from 2.3- to 3.3-fold was observed. Removal of the last methyl group resulted in a doubling of basal activity with only a small increase in PGEl-stimulated activity. Consequently, the degree of hormone stimulation dropped back to the control level. Stimulation by PGEl G T P systematically decreased from 27.5- to 16.5-fold with successive removal of methyl groups from choline. Fluoride-stimulated activity was relatively unaffected by changes in polar head group composition, and, as a result, the degree of fluoride stimulation dropped from 12.4-fold in choline cells to 5.3-fold in ethanolamine-supplemented cells. The second series of polar head group analogues included ethanolamine, 3-aminopropanol, and 1-2-amino- 1-butanol, which all contain primary amino groups but modified alkyl chains. 3-Aminopropanol-supplemented cells were very similar
