The binding isotherms of native bovine serum albumin with cationic detergents, such as octyl, decyl, dodecyl and tetradecylpyridinium bromides were determined at pH 6.8 and 3.4 at 25 degrees C. The isotherms for dodecyl and tetradecylpyridinium bromides were also determined at 3 degrees C. The average number of detergent cations bound increased with increasing hydrocarbon chain length. At low detergent concentration the binding of all alkylpyridinium bromides was smaller at pH 3.4 than at pH 6.8. Dodecylpyridinium bromide was bound to native beta-lactoglobulin, aldolase, ovalbumin, haemoglobin, myoglobin, lysozyme, trypsin and ribonuclease at pH 6.8. No binding occurred to alpha-chymotrypsin and chymotrypsinogen. The free enthalpy change, --delta G degrees, calculated from intrinsic association constants K was determined.

The ability of nonionic detergents to solubilize the membrane-bound enzymes of the brush-border plasma membrane of Hymenolepis diminuta was investigated. Of the detergents tested (Triton X-100, Tween 80, Brij 35, Lubrol PX and WX, W-1, and beta-octyl-D-glucoside), only Triton was an effective solubilizing agent. Optimal solubilization was achieved by incubating an isolated fraction of the brush-border membrane in the presence of 1% Triton X-100 for 60 min at 37 C, followed by centrifugation at 100,000 g for 60 min at 25 C. This treatment resulted in solubilization of 94% of the alkaline phosphohydrolase, 91% of the phosphodiesterase and ribonuclease, and 88% of the 5'-nucleotidase activities. The pH optima for enzymes solubilized in nonionic and ionic detergents (Triton and sodium dodecyl sulfate, respectively) did not differ. Isoelectric focusing of the Triton-solubilized material demonstrated the presence of at least 14 polypeptides, a majority of which had isoelectric points below pH 7.

Plasma membrane from the brush border isolated from the tegument of Hymenolepis diminuta contains membrane-bound ribonuclease (RNase) and alkaline phosphatase activities. RNase (yeast RNA substrate), alkaline phosphatase (p-nitrophenyl phosphate substrate), and additional membrane proteins were solubilized by sonication or treatment with the detergents dodecyl trimethylammonium bromide, beta-octyl-D-glucopyranoside, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), or ZwittergentTM 3-12 (N-dodecyl-N,N-dimethyl-3-ammonio-1-propanesulfonate). At optimal conditions, greater than 90% of both enzymes and total protein were solubilized by the latter two detergents, whereas beta-octyl-D-glucopyranoside, dodecyl trimethylammonium bromide, and sonication were only partially effective. Nonionic detergents did not solubilize the membrane effectively.
