We assessed the ability of EL to hydrolyze the sn-1 and sn-2 fatty acids (FAs) from HDL-phosphatidylcholine (HDL-PC). For this purpose, we incubated reconstituted discoidal HDL (rHDL) that contained free cholesterol (FC), apolipoprotein A-I (apo A-I) and either 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoylphosphatidylcholine (POPC), 1-palmitoyl-2-linoleoylphosphatidylcholine (PLPC) or 1-palmitoyl-2-arachidonylphosphatidylcholine (PAPC) with EL- and control- (LacZ)- conditioned medium. Gas chromatography (GC) analysis of the reaction mixtures revealed that both, the sn-1 (16:0) and sn-2 FA (18:1, 18:2 and 20:4, respectively) were liberated by EL. The higher rate of sn-1 FA cleavage compared with sn-2 FA release generated corresponding sn-2 acyl lyso-species as determined by MS analysis. EL failed to release sn-2 FA from rHDL containing plasmalogen-PC, whose sn-1 position contained a non-hydrolyzable alkyl ether linkage. The lack of phospholipase A2 (PLA2) activity of EL and its ability to liberate [14C]-FA from [14C]-lyso-PC, led us to conclude that EL-mediated deacylation of PC is initiated at the sn-1 position followed by the release of the remaining FA from the lyso-PC intermediate. TLC analysis of cellular lipids obtained from EL-overexpressing cells revealed a pronounced accumulation of 14C-PL and 14C-triglycerides (TAG) upon incubation with 1-palmitoyl-2- [1-14C]-linoleoyl-PC-labeled HDL3, indicating the ability of EL to supply cells with unsaturated FAs.
