Glycosylphosphatidylinositol-alkaline phosphatase from calf intestine as substrate for glycosylphosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipases--microassay using hydrophobic chromatography in pipet tips.

An electrophoretically homogeneous glycosylphosphatidylinositol- alkaline phosphatase fraction from calf intestine, obtained by hydrophobic chromatography, was used as "enzyme-labeled" substrate for testing phospholipase activity. The reaction products were separated by (i) hydrophobic chromatography in pipet tips and (ii) Triton X-114 phase partitioning. The chromatographic method presented permits high test frequencies, does not need temperature-controlled sample handling, and is only slightly disturbed by detergents, organic solvents, and proteins. The method was used to characterize phosphatidylinositol- specific phospholipase C from Bacillus cereus and phospholipase D from calf serum. Measurement of substrate hydrolysis by phospholipases is apparently linear to enzyme concentration and time. Relative activity of both enzymes is maximum at pH 6.5, corresponding to the optimal pH range found with other glycosylphosphatidylinositol substrates and phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipases of other sources. Maximum activity of phospholipase C was found at 0.03% Triton X-100, 0.01% Brij 35, and 0.2% n-octylglucoside. The activity is not affected by Ca(2+), NaHCO(3), o-phenanthroline, or EDTA, increasingly inhibited by MgCl(2), MnCl(2), and ZnCl(2), and slightly activated by Na+ and K+. Calf serum phospholipase D shows maximum activity at 0.05% Triton X-100, 0.02% Brij 35, and 0.4% n-octylglucoside. The apparent Km values for phospholipase C (12.25 micron) and phospholipase D (4.94 micron) found with glycosylphosphatidylinositol-alkaline phosphatase are compared with values published for other glycosylphosphatidylinositol substrates.
