Materials and MethodsSample Preparation. The zymogen of phospholipase A2 was isolated from hog pancreas and convertedinto fully active enzyme by limited proteolysis as described in Niewenhuizen et al.(1974). C16PN was synthesized as described in Van Dam-Mieras et al.(1975). All protein and lipid solutions were prepared in 0.1 M sodium acetate buffer, pH 6.0, with glass distilled water. Protein was stored as a lyophilized powder at-20 C and dissolved in buffer prior to use at concentrations near 10 µ. The complex of PLA2 andC16PN was prepared at a detergent/protein ratio of about500 with a final C16PN concentration of 5 mM. The concentration of protein was determined from the optical density at 280 nm by using£ 2ib of 13.0 for PLA2 and 12.3 for proPLA2 (Van Dam-Mieras et al., 1975). Tryptophan and TV-acetyltryptophanamide were used as purchased from Sigma Chemical Co. Fluorescence Spectra. Fluorescence emission spectra were collected at 23 C with an SLM-8000 spectrofluorometer (SLM Industries, Urbana, IL) interfaced to a microcomputer. Excitation was at 295 nm(slit 4 nm), and emission was scanned from 300 to 475 nm(slit 2 nm) in increments of 1 nm with a 2-s integration time. It was necessary to place a quartz depolarizer in the excitation beam to eliminate the pronounced polarization bias of the excitation monochromator. Spectra were collected as a ratio of emission to lamp reference and were corrected for the wavelength-dependent bias of the emission monochromator and photomultiplier tube by using a correction curve supplied by SLM. The validity of this procedure was confirmed by agreement with published spectral parameters for tryptophan and NATA. The wavelength of maximum emission of the corrected spectra was determined from plots of the first derivative of the emission intensity vs. wavelength. The half-width of the corrected spectra was determined by graphical analysis. Relative quantum yields were determined from the ratio of the integral of the corrected emission spectra to the integral of the corrected emission
