Lysophosphatidylcholine at concentrations of 30 micromolar stimulated the rate of MgATP-dependent H(+)-accumulation in oat (Avena sativa L. cv Rhiannon) root plasma membrane vesicles about 85% while the passive permeability of H(+) was unchanged. Activation was dependent on chain length, degree of saturation, and head group of the lysophospholipid. A H(+)-ATPase assay was developed that allowed the simultaneous measurement of proton pumping and ATPase activity in the same sample. ATP hydrolysis was also stimulated by lysophospholipids and showed the same lipid specificity, but stimulation was only about 25% at 30 micromolar. At higher concentrations of lysophosphatidylcholine the ATPase activity in a latency-free system could be stimulated about 150%. The enzymic properties of proton pumping and ATP hydrolysis were otherwise identical with respect to vanadate sensitivity, K(m) for ATP and pH optimum. The stimulatory effect of lysophospholipids suggests that these compounds could be part of the regulatory system for plant plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase activity in vivo.
