The fluidity of the exofacial (outer) and cytofacial (inner) leaflets of human proximal small intestinal brush-border membrane vesicles was studied by selective quenching by trinitrophenyl groups, steady-state fluorescence polarization, and differential polarized phase fluorometry techniques, utilizing the lipid soluble fluorophore 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene. Differences in the hemileaflet's phospholipid composition were also analyzed by trinitrophenylation of aminophospholipids and phospholipase A2treatment of these preparations. The results of these studies demonstrated that the inner leaflet of these membranes was less fluid than its outer counterpart. Phosphatidylserine was located mainly in the inner hemileaflet, whereas phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylcholine were more symmetrically distributed between the hemileaflets of this membrane. Moreover,in vitroaddition of 2-[(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl]-cis-8-(2-octylcyclopropyl)octanoate (final concentration, 7.5 μm) preferentially fluidized the cytofacial leaflet and concomitantly increased Na+-gradient-dependentd-glucose uptake, but decreased Na+, K+-dependentl-glutamic acid uptake in these membrane vesicles.In vitroaddition of benzyl alcohol (final concentration, 25 mm) preferentially fluidized the exofacial leaflet and decreased leucine aminopeptidase activity in these preparations. These results, therefore, demonstrate that the hemileaflets of human small intestinal brush-border membranes have different phospholipid compositions and fluidities. Alterations of either the exofacial or cytofacial leaflet fluidity, moreover, modulate protein-mediated activities in a distinct manner.
