The lipid binding site of the phosphatidylcholine transfer protein from bovine liver has been investigated by use of phosphatidylcholine analogs which carry a diazirinophenoxy group linked to the ω‐carbon of either thesn‐2‐[1‐14C]hexanoyl (PCI) orsn‐2‐[1‐14C]undecanoyl chain (PC II). Photolysis of the PCI(PCII)‐transfer protein complex resulted in a covalent coupling of 30–40% of the label to the protein as shown by sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Upon mild alkaline treatment of the photolysed complex the protein containing covalently coupled14C‐label was separated fro the noncoupled14C‐label by gel permeation chromatography. The14C‐labeled protein was degraded with protease fromStaphylococcus aureus, trypsin and cyanogen bromide and specific14C‐labeled peptides were sequenced by automated Edman degradation. Major sites of coupling shown by release of radioactivity were identified as Tyr54and the peptide segment Val171‐Phe‐Met‐Tyr‐Tyr‐Phe‐Asp177. Both PC I and PC II coupled extensively to Tyr54(90% and 5% of total labeling, respectively). The remainder of the radioactivity was released from the peptide Val171‐Asp177with a distinct difference in in the pattern of release depending on whether PC I or PC II were used. Thus, coupling occurred preferentially to Tyr175and Asp177with PC I while Val171and Met173were labeled preferentially with PC II. This shift in coupling is compatible with an increasae of 0.6 nm for thesn‐2‐fatty‐acyk cgaubs if OC I and II, assuming that the peptide Val171‐Asp177has adopted the strongly predicted β‐strand configuration. These data have beeninterpreted in terms of the localization of phosphatidylcholine in the phosphatidylcholine transfer protein.
