Abstract
Studies were performed to characterize the binding1 of bile acids to intestinal brush border membranes. Total14C-taurodeoxycholate binding was: 1) similar for brush borders prepared from jejunum and ileum, 2) linear with respect to monomer concentration, 3) uninhibited by a structural analog, and 4) not depressed by boiling or trypsin. A linear relationship existed between binding and the number of hydrogen bonds formed by a bile acid and the slope of the line corresponded to σΔF of 300 cal/mol. The binding of bile acids to the 105,000×g supernatant fraction of sonicated brush borders was similar to the binding of phospholipid liposomes using gel chromatography. These data suggest that: 1) the kinetics and characteristics of binding of bile acid to ileal brush borders do not reflect the kinetics and characteristics of active ileal transport previously obtained in whole tissue preparations, but instead reflect the kinetics and characteristics of passive jejunal transport; 2) a determinant of binding is hydrogen bonding with water; 3) isolated intact brush borders are relatively polar membranes; and 4) binding to solubilized brush borders may represent partitioning between the aqueous phase and membrane lipid.Keywords
