Abstract
Phospholipase D reacts with alcohols or water, transphosphatidylating or hydrolysing lipids such as phosphatidylcholine, generating phosphatidylalcohols or phosphatidic acid, respectively. The enzyme has been employed in many applications making use of the transphosphatidylation reaction and the enzyme’s tolerance for organic solvents in order to synthesize natural and artificial phospholipids. Yet, its catalytic properties with respect to the transphosphatidylation reaction are not well understood. Here, we introduce a novel high-throughput assay, making use of 96-well plates, that employs Fluorescamine for the detection of transphosphatidylated amino alcohols. This assay allowed to monitor the KM and VMax at different temperatures, revealing that the former will be elevated by the temperature, while the latter is increased by a combination of both temperature and alcohol acceptor concentration being elevated, suggesting that increase in temperature may open up a new binding site for the alcohol acceptor.
