Incubation of Micrococcus lysodeikticus protoplasts with phosphatidylcholine liposomes and rat liver exchange proteins (pH 5.1 supernatant fraction) resulted in replacement of about one half of the bacterial total phospholipids by phosphatidylcholine. Protoplasts modified by phosphatidylcholine showed a decreased rate of oxidation of exogenous substrates (NADH, malate) and decreased ferricyanide reductase activity as compared to the initial protoplasts. At the same time incorporation of phosphatidylcholine had no influence on the level of endogeneous respiration. Protoplasts modified by phosphatidylcholine were osmotically more stable than the initial protoplasts. After osmotic lysis of the phosphatidylcholine protoplasts their NADH (malate) oxidase and ferricyanide reductase activities were restored. Incorporation of phosphatidylcholine into membrane ghosts, obtained by osmotic rupture of the initial protoplasts had only small if any effect on the malate and NADH oxidase and dehydrogenase activities. It is concluded that phosphatidylcholine in incorporated predominantly into the outer part of cytoplasmic membrane and that proteinmediated transfer of phosphatidylcholine results in restoration of the permeability barrier due to repair of local defects in the initial protoplast membrane. |
