Recently, the influence of acyl structure on galactosylceramide's (GalCer)
interfacial phase behavior was studied [Ali, S., Smaby, J. M., & Brown, R.E.
(1993) Biochemistry 32, 11696-11703]. Here, we show that acyl structure is a key
parameter controlling GalCer's ability to interact with cholesterol. Different
chain-pure GalCer species containing saturated (24:0, 18:0, or 10:0), or
unsaturated (24:1 delta 15, 22:1 delta 13, or 18:2 delta 9, 12) acyl chains were
synthesized. After measurement of the force-area behavior of mixed
cholesterol/GalCer films at 24 degrees C, the average molecular area and average
compressibility were determined as a function of film composition. Cholesterol
exerts only a slight condensing effect when the GalCer species are liquid-ordered
[liquid-condensed], with maximum condensation occurring near 0.25 mole fraction.
However, cholesterol exerts a marked condensing effect on liquid-disordered
(liquid-expanded) GalCer species regardless of whether the acyl chain is
saturated or unsaturated. Maximum condensation occurs at cholesterol mole
fractions between 0.3 and 0.4. We also compared cholesterol's relative condensing
effect on liquid-expanded GalCer versus sphingomyelin. Cholesterol's condensation
of either bovine brain or egg sphingomyelin is 25-30% greater than that observed
with different liquid-expanded GalCer species. Aside from average area behavior,
we assessed cholesterol's interfacial interactions with the various sphingolipids
by determining the average compressibility as a function of composition. The
compressibility of condensed GalCer derivatives changes very little upon addition
of cholesterol.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
