Phospholipase A2-Induced Remodeling Processes on Liquid-Ordered/Liquid-Disordered Membranes Containing Docosahexaenoic or Oleic Acid: A Comparison Study.

Vesicle cycling, which is an important biological event, involves the interplay between membrane lipids and proteins, among which the enzyme phospholipase A2 (PLA2) plays a critical role. The capacity of PLA2 to trigger the budding and fission of liquid-ordered (L(o)) domains has been examined in palmitoyl-docosahexaenoylphosphatidylcholine (PDPC) and palmitoyl-oleoylphosphatidylcholine (POPC)/sphingomyelin/cholesterol membranes. They both exhibited a L(o)/liquid-disordered (L(d)) phase separation. We demonstrated that PLA2 was able to trigger budding in PDPC-containing vesicles but not POPC ones. The enzymatic activity, line tension, and elasticity of the membrane surrounding the L(o) domains are critical for budding. The higher line tension of Lo domains in PDPC mixtures was assigned to the greater difference in order parameters of the coexisting phases. The higher amount of lysophosphatidylcholine generated by PLA2 in the PDPC-containing mixtures led to a less-rigid membrane, compared to POPC. The more elastic L(d) membranes in PDPC mixtures exert a lower counteracting force against the L(o) domain bending.
